The Burning Man festival, a popular counterculture music and art gathering, in the Southwest has come to a close. Overall, the weeklong festival leading up to Labor Day was successful and safe except for Thursday’s death of a 29-year-old Wyoming woman who was struck by a bus carrying passengers on the playa of the Black Rock Desert, roughly 110 miles north of Reno, Nevada.

The accident happened just after midnight near Center Camp, event spokesman Jim Graham said. Alicia Louise Cipicchio, of Jackson, Wyo., was pronounced dead on the scene.

According to various reports, Cipicchio fell under the fur-covered “Shagadelica” double-decker bus and was run over by it, according to the Pershing County Sheriff’s Office. The art transport was towing a trailer with heavy equipment, including a generator. Cipicchio tried to jump on the bus while it was moving to climb a ladder to its roof, between the bus and trailer. While Burning Man founders Larry Harvey and Marion Goodell were on board, no charges have been filed.

Burning Man co-founder Goodell said it was a “tragic accident.” The last accidental death there was seven years ago, when an attendee fell under a trailer. Crime statistics for this year’s event will not be released until later this month.

While the accident was a bit of negative press, the festival’s eclectic artwork, offbeat theme camps, concerts and other entertainment drew praise from participants from around the world. It was reported that the event drew a peak crowd of nearly 66,000 celebrants as it neared its end on Monday in the Northern Nevada desert.

“Actually, I feel a renewed faith in humanity,” John Bacon, of Seattle, told KRNV-TV.

After the festival moved from San Francisco, the inaugural Burning Man in Nevada drew only about 80 people in 1990. It has since become the destination for counterculture entertainment in the Southwest.
