Thousands trapped at Nevada’s Burning Man festival may have a chance of escape on Monday as improving weather conditions give the Black Rock desert a chance to dry out from torrential rains that hit the festival with heavy mud.
About 70,000 festival-goers, known as “burners”, were ordered to “shelter in place” and conserve water and food over the weekend after festival organizers said roads were impassable because of mud and not officially open.
