Walkthrough

Exterior

The mine can be reached from the north or by descending the mountain from the Stalhrim Source to the east. Above the mine entrance is a multi-tiered riekling camp built upon the mountain. The camp features a pair of bridges, the second of which spans the gap leading to the mine entrance. At the far end of the bridges is a tent, with a food sack inside and two food sacks outside. The path continues northeast to the uppermost level, where a second tent contains an unlocked chest and another unlocked chest is under a lookout platform to the right. Also under the platform is an East Empire Company strongbox on top of a crate. Four rieklings, including a mounted riekling charger, guard the camp and mine entrance.

Mine interior

The entrance descends to a wooden platform with a ramp leading down to the cavern floor. The interior of the mine consists of a single large cavern with several riekling tents. The right section of the platform appears newer than the rest, and seems to have been built by the rieklings. Just below this section of the platform, you will find some collapsed and broken timbers, with a lootable skeleton lying on top. There is a riekling on the platform to the left of the ramp, in front of an empty tent. Another riekling is by a campfire next to the south wall, and the third riekling is next to a riekling hut to the west.

Under the wooden platform, to the right as you descend the ramps, is a crate with two gold ingots, two small coin purses, two gold necklaces, two silver necklaces, a gold ring, two silver rings, a silver garnet ring, two garnets, and six loose septims all on top, and two more gold ingots on the ground in front of it. To the north is a heart stone deposit, with an unlocked wooden chest to the left flanked by two barrels containing ingredients. Farther to the left is a pen containing a second heart stone deposit and a campfire. To the west is the riekling hut, with a riekling barrel to the left that will burst open to reveal another riekling. Behind the barrel is another unlocked chest, with a short tunnel to the left heading southwest containing a dead reaver and a lootable skeleton.

Notes

• To the left of the empty tent on the platform inside the mine is a patch on the wall that looks like a depleted ore vein.
