Coffee. Warm. Pastries. Music. Loving. Tea. Peaceful. Sexy. Shade. Lounge. Home. Le Kafé may be the coziest landing spot on playa at any hour in 9 o’clock sector.
Morning: Bring a cup and enjoy organic coffee and tea along with pastries and biscotti. Sit down in shade and jump start your body and mind.
Afternoon: shady napping abounds in our “flounge” (lounge of many futons). Cool off in our yurt, large hammock or porch swing. Down tempo grooves provide a gentle backdrop day and night. Relax. Sip a cold one. Get a back rub. Soak your feet in a cool medicinal bath.
Evening: sunset transforms Le Kafe into an informal cocktail lounge where you can enjoy playing with our many lighted toys or our 7-circuit lighted labyrinth. Late night fires warm your bones as you stumble back to town. After playa nights, blankets and pillows abound in the lounge. Snuggle. Slumber. Repeat.
Come see how we provide one of the best landing pads in Black Rock City.

A
Hunting party
Sometimes has a greater chance
Of flushing love and God
Out into the open
Than a warrior
All
Alone.
– Hafiz
The Hunting Party is where movement and magic swirl wild forms in the dust. Exploring the mystical realms within and without, we stalk the many-faced prey of the One – we are the flock and the fledging, the church and the people, the dungeon and the steeple. We explore the ever-emerging edge of intimate truth and togetherness. Before, during, and after, we dance.
By day, we play with reverent abandon and reckless devotion in honor of each other – and what we create when we turn our heartbeams to a dynamic and fluid center. We serve homemade kimchi by the arched fingerful and deliver fresh, happy juices into keen mouths. By night, we play with spontaneity and serendipity, drunk only on the magic of connection and juice. The dome becomes a place to mellow out and venture into the frontierlands of mind, body, and spirit where we, the Hunting Party seek the We in You.

Lunar Fueling Station
The Lunar Fueling Station is a rest stop for astronauts en route to other planets. Since water is scarce we gift hydrating drinks to travelers and our shade protects travelers from the harsh moon conditions. We will also have a Moon Landing Hoax stage where you and your friends can re-enact NASA’s faking of a moon landing (and photos will be e mailed to you after the event). The Station also has a FM radio station at 90.9 on the dial to send communiqués to other planets. Our team consists of multiple scientists, philosophers, physicians, and engineers who give lectures on planetary sciences, biology, neuroscience, and more. A portable lab is set up for conducting experiments in chemistry and biology, to help educate travelers on terraforming technologies they’ll need in their emigration. In the evenings we have a rocket fire sculpture for keeping warm in the harsh moon climate.
