Some comments about this we saw on the web:

* /u/potato0 on /r/BurningMan These cooling towels are AWESOME. They are made of a material that water soaks into, but doesn’t come out of easily. This means they hold a ton of water, stay wet for ages, and don’t get anything touching them wet at all (so you don’t get an irritated neck like you do from wearing a wet towel). Seriously if you wet one of these and give it a squeeze, you’ll be amazed by how much water comes out. They dry stiff, so make sure to fold them up neatly while they’re still wet. Highly, highly recommended.

Shemaghs make great dust masks, head scarves, and hats. There is a reason these things are so popular in the desert. Lots of colors too.

These are the disposable dust masks to get. For a proper whiteout, they offer better filtration/protection than a bandana, and the valve means you can actually wear them for more than five minutes without suffocating. They come in little individually wrapped packs, which mean they’re great for gifts (although I’d unwrap the ones you aren’t planning to carry around as a gift at home).

Not prime, but free shipping, and if you order now they’ll get here: goggles. Comes with a day and night set, inexpensive and highly recommended. These are my go-to utility goggles.

These personal misters are good. They aren’t durable, so don’t count on it lasting more than a year, but they’re much more compact than the big garden sprayers.

If you feel the need to own a Soviet Russian spec gas mask, amazon has one for 10 bucks. Protip: that bag it comes with is the perfect size to stick a 1 gallon waterbottle (the kind with the peice of tape a handle, not the ones with the handle built into the bottle) to turn it into a canteen.

If you enjoy biking, and tend to wear boots, wide, grippy pedals are great bike upgrade. I was really suprised at the difference they made for stability and my ability to comfortably put power to the ground. I went for these ones that were on sale last year (not prime), but the shape is what matters from what I can tell, so any ones like that with the grip nubs should be good. There are cheaper ones made of plastic, but I find plastic pedals crack on the playa way too easily, and a decent set of metal ones was worth the investment.
