Bonus Objective triggered upon entering the Forbidden Glacier (25,49).
Malevolent Breath roam the area, and the wolves/grunts are frozen throughout the area.

Don't forget to kill the rare that roams the crevasse, [npc=78867], to have your 40% chance at [item=111476].

Completed this objective, 8/8 Ogres Killed and 3/3 Wolves Freed but it isn't completing. Didn't have this problem on my druid or hunter, but on my lock it's not working.

UPDATE:

Exiting the bonus objective area and then re-entering has solved this glitch.

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.
