Death reported at Burning Man fest, attendees stuck in desert from heavy rain

Thousands of Burning Man festival attendees stranded in Nevada desert due to heavy rains, with temporary site closure and uncertain conditions ahead. Investigation underway for an unidentified death during the event. Organizers advise conservation of resources for those already on-site. The festival, known for its self-sufficiency, faces challenges with no vehicular traffic and unattended portable toilets. Over 70,000 people were present before the closure, and significant rain hit the usually dry desert site. The event was scheduled from August 27 to September 4.
