Burning Man: Festival revellers remain stranded after torrential rains - BBC News

Thousands of people remain stuck at the Burning Man festival in the US state of Nevada, after torrential rains turned the ground to deep, slippery mud.
The festival is held in the Black Rock Desert, which is usually dry and dusty, but this year unusual rainstorms came towards the end of the nine-day event, when the biggest crowds arrive to see the burning of the giant wooden effigy – which has been postponed.
But, while the worst of the rains is thought to have passed, it could be several days before the ground dries up enough for people to leave, and as a result, they have been urged to conserve food, water, and fuel.
