If you are bringing clothes - wrap them in plastic wrap. It's dusty AF out there.

• boots (you can get by with sneakers - waterproof boots are better imho)
• shower shoes (flip flops)
• towel or two
• tissue paper (it's dusty AF)
• zip lock bags
• butt wipes (DO NOT PUT IN PORTA POTTIES
• big old shower wipes if you are gross
• lotion - if you aren't used to the desert keep your skin from cracking
• a good water bottle
• new socks for each day if wearing boots/shoes
• a cheap backpack - remove all branding
• a cup or two
• whatever snacks you like - bring less than you think. salty/sweet/oily things. I bring dried beans, jerky, and nut bars.
• breakfasty stuff - many people like oatmeal packs, i eat ramen
• 'lunch' food - i bring bowls of instant ramen and tuna fish
• 'fun' clothes for night, 'work' clothes for day.
• bring cold weather gear! it's very possible you'll be outside in freezing temps
• work kilts are very handy if actually building things - pockets are a lifesaver
• booze you like - cheap beer tastes awesome out there
• Nevada is 'everything is legal' state - there is a dispensary in Fernley. Feds have to pretend to enforce though so don't flash in front of BLM rangers. BRC rangers and local sheriff doesn't care

• bring a decent powerpack - leave in the sun
• bring 'sleeping headphones' to block us out

• Sunhat WITH A TIE DOWN
• Spray Sunscreen works best
• Kurtas work great
• Thobes are good for walking - bad for biking
• 'Shemaghs' are very useful

• EL Wire For your Bike/Backpack
• Batteries for your EL/Lights
• Bike Lights
• Headlamps - bring two
