Weather conditions at the Burning Man festival in the US have eased enough to allow revellers to start leaving.
Heavy rain had turned the event, held in a desert in Nevada, into a mud bath.
The ground is now dry enough for vehicles to drive on it without getting stuck, and pictures show campervans driving out of the event.
Some 72,000 people had been stranded at the festival, but organisers say they are ready for a mass exodus from Monday morning, local time.
