If it wasn't Mortimer Duke - it was nothing. Seriously, we were out in the barren wasteland of Pod 11... if you couldn't handle the dust, the heat, and the psychedelic terrain that is the farthest reaches of BFE - you couldn't handle the Duke.
Seriously, we could still hear music from the main stages even late at night... we got very few thieves/shady types, we were really close to the pod, and our neighbors were generally cool. I didn't really mind BFE that much.

{I was in a Coming To America camp! I don't remember the name, but we were right on the treeline...the shade was nice, but the walk wasn't! I did enjoy getting to see the REAL shakedown though}
Oh man! We all commented on how nice it would be to camp under those trees! Ah, shade.
Well, the trees/shade were nice, but the ticks weren't! We had a pretty bad problem with them the first day, had to load up on the bug spray. They went away after awhile though. Plus, it was easy to find our camp...just go to the house on bushy branch, turn, and go straight back to the trees!
Camp Scott Evil here.... a bit further away than last year but no biggie. Well, except for Sunday when we walked half way to Centeroo, then realized I left my camera back at camp. We had to go back for it. It was a moral imperative.

Lois Einhorn - Woot! Honestly, I didn't mind it at all. Except that stabby stabby rip stabby grass! The first thing I did getting out of my car at Roo was cutting my foot wide open on GRASS!!!!
If you would stop and notice that we number every day But allow the many moments left uncounted slip away You don't have to count them, just enjoy them one by one Then things would take a different hue and sparkle in the sun - Phish

Wow, that sucks! But you are not alone (sort of) we put our shade tent thingie right on top of a giant anthill. Those little bastards bite, too.
(Yeah. The grass truly sucked. Who knew that grass could be so un-grass-like?)
reppin Camp Luke Skywalker here....out in BFE across bushy branch. It sucked so bad, it was pure dust on the ground within 20yds of the road. Just under Pod 8
the far side of austin powers. 30-45 minute walk. this was my first roo, and if it weren't for all the great people and music it would have ruined it for me. i hated not being able to go back to camp during the day. but i'm pretty positive i'll be attending next year, regardless
we were camped in Camp Marsellus Wallace RIGHT next to the entrance off of I-24 and it wasn't too bad at all... The only bad thing was we were a bit of a hike away from the porto-shitters and the water troughs

Did anyone here end up right next to one of the dirt roads in BFE or otherwise? I felt really sorry for some of those people... out near Pod 11 there were people with literally an inch of dust on their car, tent, cooler, chairs, hair, the ground, and anything/everything that wasn't well protected. We would walk by at like 9 in the morning and they were all huddled in their tent with masks/bandannas already on and looking like hell. I think I would have moved.

We weren't in BFE, but our tent was 4 ft. from the road. Everything was covered in dust...EVERYTHING! We had to set our cooler outside in the rain when we got home to wash the dirt off. My car was really, really dirty. I had to clean the windows off before I left so I could see where I was going.
We went camping this past weekend and luckily it rained and washed the dirt off of our tent for us...no more brown tent!

We had to wash our windows before leaving as well. Cooler was stolen the last night, but it was also caked with dust. Atleast I didn't have to wash that.

"Dr. Rumack". Not bad. Less than 10 minutes from the Ferris wheel. Less than 30 yards from the nearest facilities. Right next to a large patch of trees. Lots of shade in the morning.
down sides: Never saw a water truck near our site. (VERY dusty) There was an unbelievably bright flood-light shining directly on us at night. No staff assistance when parking. More bugs than usual. No security. The person with the key to the ice truck decided to not show-up on Friday.
