Took me like 30 minutes to figure out how to finish this quest. Not sure if this quest is bugged or if it has some delays and are being phased due the WoD released today.
1. If nothing happens when you meet up Durotan, then run back until you see a sign and then turn back to Durotan without using a mount.
2. Kill the mobs around the nearest campfire.
3. Go to the second nearest campfire and kill everything again.
4. Go to the third campfire and kill everything around it, including the mobs that spawn.

I rode up to the the camp with Thrall and Durotan. Before I was able to kill anything, the quest auto-completed and every objective went 1/1...even the optional ones. Was obviously bugged.

Well, it may sound trivial, but maybe it helps someone: If you get interrupted by anything while fighting the mobs, for example if you have to log out: Durotan will most likely not there, but you can finish the objectives of the quest, inclusive killing Razortusk the Untamed, and you can't turn in quest.
Logout will not help. But simply move out of the zone a few meters, till you get new zone info. Then get back and Durotan will spawn, so you can turn in quest.
