Exploration, part 5: Dwarven farm

From IF airport, I slid and jumped down the mountain. Not sure if there is a "safe" way to do this, as I used slowfall, but apparently, there is another way to get there by climbing the mountains by the orc camps near the excavation site. There are several areas with buildings, a field with cows and chickens, a little pond with a waterfall. If you follow the road up around the pond, there is a tunnel that leads to nowhere (I think you will probably fall for a long time before you die). There are dwarven farmers, and also Ironforge Mountaineers which will give you directions to Kharanos.

If you follow the road and go past the big tree at 28,62, you will end up on weird looking, flat, obviously unfinished terrain. If you go to 45, 61, there is a lake that overlooks the Dun Algaz pass. You'll notice on your map that this area shows up as a blank, "unexplored" area. The safest way to get down (note: I didn't try that hard, as I did not find the mountain climbing way of actually getting up; that would be the best way down) is to go to the area where the orc camps meet the excavation site. There is a short fall to a hill there, and you can climb safely down the rest of the way.
