Welcome to burnabout.com! The only place to get the real dirt on the burnabout semi-annual camping trip.
How’s it work?Simple. It happens twice a year. We camp on private land. We provide the rental fees for the location, set up two large community tents, provide meals, coffee/juice, sound system, and of course fire. You show up with a tent, bedding, snacks and any other spirits (this is a BYOB event) or personal items you may need to feel comfy. That’s it. Pitch in, enjoy, and party! How can you pitch in? Put your trash in proper receptacles, help clean up after meals, help with infrastructure set up and breakdown, gather firewood, and help others that may not be as well prepared as you!
What’s it cost?All we ask is that you make a minimum online donation of $55 per person. What does the money go to? We donate $30 to Friends of the Brazos, a non-profit organization with the mission of restoring a sound ecological environment to the Brazos, especially between Lakes Possum Kingdom and Whitney. The additional $25 goes to food, beverages, ice, helium tank (for our awesome 2600 watt halogen balloon), propane for cooking and other partillaneous expenses.
Event begins on May 2 at 4 PM and ends on Sunday May 4 at 5 PM. All participants must depart by 5 PM Sunday. Take a break from the rat race and join us for some fun under the stars. Sign up now!

And do we have a great one this event. This burnabout will be at the Double J Ranch in Mineral Wells owned by Jimmy and Jane Baldwin, www.djartranch.com. And as they say, it’s a “A Creative Outpost to Inspire the Human Spirit”, and a darn beautiful place.

Locations of burnabout are planned to change each event. If you know of someone who has private property - acres of land - that would be interested in hosting our event, please let us know. Contact: burnout@burnabout.com
Land owners generously hosting our events understand that ALL burnabouters practice NO TRACE camping. That means when we leave, it’s like we were never there! Please give of land sponsors the respect they deserve, bring old tins for your cigarette butts and use camp receptiles. Those that do not leave their camp site as NO TRACE will be not allowed to participate in future events.
