I am sure the BM has morphed into something other than what started as.
Some guy who decided to have a bon fire cause his lady friend wouldn’t marry.
But let’s not get carried away with the BM is evil incarnate.
Well, maybe not evil, just messy to deal with at times. Other times just fine. ;-)

I worked at the USG plant in Empire from 91 to 94 so was there when it first started. It was a little more about art and 50 cal tracer bullets and explosions back then. I used to run into John Law and Larry Harvey alot just random locations in the desert back then, they were always shooting something. I still got my ‘66 cruiser and camp in the region alot, though I avoid the surface of the playa itself, and the surrounding hotsprings. There are much more interesting dry lakes 100% devoid of people or artificial lights with all sorts of interesting rock formations and ghost towns to explore if you know where to look. Even found the only whole intact stamp mill I have ever seen not in a museum.
