Yes, this is the mighty (and rarely photographed) Danger Ranger, here seen
looking far off into a future that he alone can see.
Danger is the father and religious icon of the Black Rock Rangers, and
a truly great soul. if you see him on the playa, drop
and worship him! Wahooo! (that and note the cool pattern
of light around him -- those are his mighty head rays)
STANDARD
DISCLAIMERS (and related pooh)
First and foremost:
~~THIS IS NOT
AN OFFICIAL BLACK ROCK RANGER WEB SITE!~~
for that, shoot off to http://www.rangers.org/
Instead it is simply my personal attempt to share with my friends what i have found useful in my now 8 trips to Burning Man. the information here is what i have gleaned from my own experience and -- more importantly -- from the experience and advice of my many brother and sister rangers who are far smarter and more experienced than me.
as for my own dumb bunny self, i am a senior ranger, and green (crisis intervention) and blue dot (med stuff) ranger. my ranger radio 'handle' is "dogboy" and my symbol is ^,,^ (radio handles need to have a crisp almost teutonic sound to survive radio static and warble and still be recognizable -- a name like 'Aloysius Llewellyn' wouldn't quite cut it...)
well, if you see me on the playa, say hi (or throw fresh fruit -- just not at my head)
and if you run into any problems out there, or simply a question or two, don't hesitate to get in touch with any ranger you see -- for as a group represent enormous experience and expertise (especially the dusty ones) and the best and they are there ready to pitch in and help. take advantage of this remarkable resource, as i have. and consider joining us. no special skills needed, just a commitment to our Burning Man family.
all kinds of info about what rangers do and how to join can be found here (well, there).
If you have tips you would like to share with our community through this site, oh pahleeeze shoot me an email! (if you don't like the site, just shoot me)
that, or, put a stamp on it and send it to me at.... well.... hows'about:
