Step 7Camp Structure
People band together to set up a nice camp.
This photo illustrates most of the elements of a good camp.
Common area with high quality shade.
Mailbox for visitors to leave notes for people - cellphones don't work here.
Landmark so you and your friends can find your camp
A big sign clearly stating the name of the camp and what the street address is
Something to offer to passersby - a croquet game in this case
Plentiful water for drinking and washing
Safely capped tentstakes and garden lights to reduce trip hazards
Not seen here, the camp also needs a greywater evaporator or holdinng tank to keep the wash water from creating wet craters in the playa.
