The Golden Spike - Black Rock City 2015 Begins!

8/2/2015

The Golden Spike was driven into the playa today, signifying the official beginning of Black Rock City 2015. YEEEEEEESSSSSS! I am so fucking ready to get dusty.

Pictures from the day. Not sure who took these, but Crimson posted them.

Will Roger and Crimson Rose.

The Spike is prepared!

Coyote prepares to ceremonially smash the spike with a bottle.

The aftermath.

DPW is on the clean-up job!
