TheWoWDBThe in-game "track quest point-of-interests" appears to be bugged for this quest. It states that the troggs can be found to the north and south but they can only be found in the south.

Description
We need to protect the Loch, {name}! With so many of the King's soldiers fighting valiantly on remote battlefields, we've become overwhelmed on the home front. Troggs are tunneling up from every crevice! The trogg infestation poses the largest threat to Ironforge. We need you, brave adventurer, to venture forth and lay waste to the trogg threat. Slay twelve Stonesplinter troggs and venture back.

I think it's not solved yet...
Same for the highlighted light-blue on the map: two areas are shown, but the troggs are only found in the area to the south.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Pilot's Revenge
Hildelve wrote in his journal that he was attacked by Mangeclaw, a "huge Ice Claw Bear." He drove off the beast, but not before it mauled him savagely. Judging from the state of Hildelve's body, Mangeclaw must have later returned and killed him.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Trogg Threat
<class>, you may or may not be aware of the trogg threat looming over dwarven lands. With the Ironforge Reserve called up to the Alliance Front, we're left with a fraction of the defense forces needed to keep these lands safe.
