Oh hi! You've found Dustmight, a scrappy little Burning Man camp.

Established(ish) in 2017 and burning every official year since, we're not yet a placed theme camp but hope to be one day! We've camped indie as well as within the venerable Alternative Energy Zone Village. We've ranged from 4–11 campers, and I'm happy to say we've had a variety of ages and experience levels from virgin burners through to 8th-timers.

If you aren't one of the people who already know me (Ty) and want to get in touch, reach me here. (If this describes you, I want to hear from you!)

Back in '07, my friend Charlie shared her bucket list with me, the first item being Burning Man. I had never heard of anything like it before. While it suited her, I started my own bucket list of things that I would never do. The Burn was the only item on the list.

TL;DR: Yay, we didn't run out of water! (...by consuming about 4.4L each per day)

For our own small contribution as a camp to BRC in 2018 we resolved to adopt some porta-potties. It's dirty work but we all knew the feeling of discovering a special porta.
