I was lucky enough to catch one of the last days of the winter/spring lake out in the Black Rock Desert at the end of July, 2011. This video was shot about ten miles north of the Burning Man event site. For more on the science behind what we saw, check out my weekly science column on Unofficial Networks:

I have a lot more footage shot by my friend Greg Martin (he is the one walking in the clip), and we plan to update and improve this clip soon. Stay tuned!
