You can just hop in the cart and go AFK for a few minutes. The cart takes no damage, the yeti despawns, and you arrive at the destination ready to turn in the quest.

I call this the LFR Quest, because you get carried while AFKing and still win. It really ought to reward epics.

If you're having issues in 8.0, just don't use any of the cart abilities. When I initially did the quest at 110, I kept bugging through the terrain, and it was only triggered after using the items. Once I stopped using them and let the cart go on its own it completed.

Description

The mountain pass is very dangerous. You need much luck to survive. Nephew Bentnail will show you the way. Perhaps today is a lucky day to travel though. Wind blows from the east; this is good sign. Grummles always travel best when east wind blows. Climb in the cart when you are ready to leave.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • They Stole My Luck!Kun-Lai Summit · Level 20-35

    My journeys through Kun-Lai have taught me two things. First, never sneak up on a sleeping yak. Second, having luck on your side is both necessary and hard to come by. The grummles believe in carrying a lucky trinket at all times.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • One Traveler's MisfortuneKun-Lai Summit · Level 20-35

    Did you have to throw our supplies at them?! Why not use your weapon? Maybe fancy spells or kicks? Why the supplies?! Now we don't have enough to last us, especially with Nephew Bentnail here. His appetite is like a yeti's! You threw it, you get us more. There is wreckage down the path.
