The nine-day celebration of art and self-expression held in Black Rock City, Nevada, is held at the end of each summer and culminates in the burning of a towering wooden sculpture shaped like a man — hence its name. But this year’s festival has been a very different scene. The event was pummeled by rain, leaving thousands of attendees trapped and dealing with thick sludge. Attendees were finally permitted to begin leaving the festival site on Monday. The extreme conditions have challenged the free-spirited atmosphere that has long been central to Burning Man’s allure. Burners are usually prepared for difficult conditions, but not to this degree, said Benjamin Wachs, who wrote a book about Burning Man. “I do think that climate change is creating an environment where this is going to become unpredictably harder,” he added.
