Gerlach

Gerlach is a tiny community in Washoe County, Nevada at the edge of the Black Rock Desert in the remote high desert of far northern Nevada, best known as the gateway to the Black Rock playa and the Burning Man event, with geothermal activity and the famous Fly Geyser nearby. Its life runs on Black Rock Desert recreation and event traffic, geothermal and ranching, travel services, and the handful of operations serving the playa country. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Gerlach area's recreation, event-services, and remote operations, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
