    Stilt walkers enjoy a sunset stroll at the Burning Man counterculture festival in Black Rock Desert, Nev., Thursday, Sept 2, 2004. Burning Man started as a vanishing flight of fancy on a San Francisco beach, an artwork that literally disappeared in a puff of smoke when artists torched an eight-foot wooden figure 18 years ago. Now Nevada's seventh-largest city rises from the remote Black Rock Desert for a week each summer, returning to dust and ash after the Saturday night immolation of the central icon.
