70,000 stranded in the desert because of rain.

I agree with feywon, the trash must be bad. Despite what is required.

The last place I'd want to go is a crowded place like that.

I've heard of clean ups on BLM land. People leave trash behind. There are clean ups. I don't get people.
I've seen aerial footage. Looks like they didn't leave any trash at all.

95% of the people who showed up were in RVs and vans, and they mostly parked in large groups so they could share bathroom and kitchen facilities.

And from what I see on YouTube, which is mostly aerial views, everyone got out ok. They had to wait for the flood water to recede, but they're making it out alright.
 
You have to hand it to Shalaco and his friends. Their passion for the festival and their mission to return the area to its natural state is very commendable.

"Shalaco is a San Francisco-based photographer whose mini-documentaries about Burning Man offer a fascinating glimpse into all aspects of the event's production as well as the process of cleaning up and restoring the desert to its original condition."

Dozens of volunteers join his clean-up and restoration team every year and hundreds donate funds for the equipment, hazmat suits, etc. Many of them are frequent attendees of Burning Man.

I'm glad there are people doing the clean up and making sure everything is left like it was. Just like what had to be done at Lake Tahoe this past 4th of July.
