Burning Man festivalgoers surrounded by mud in Nevada desert

Tens of thousands of 'burners' at the Burning Man festival have been told to stay in the camps, conserve food and water and are being blocked from leaving Nevada’s Black Rock desert after a slow-moving rainstorm turned the event into a mud bath.

As of noon on Saturday, Nevada’s Bureau of Land Management declared the entrance to Burning Man shut down for good. There was no estimated time for reopening. The event is officially over on Monday, but many attendees usually begin leaving on Saturday night or Sunday. However, the wet weather showed no signs of easing.
