If people are crowding the iceberg with mounts and you're unable to see the scale to get the quest, use [item=158149], which are conveniently available currently from the anniversary.
Another toy that helps is [item=97919]. If you zoom into first person view, you can see everything near you on the ground even with mounts up.
