For those without cords it is right underneath the MS in Temple of Storms.
Don't make the same mistake I did and search down by the river. It's a little higher than that on a cliff between some trees.

Description
After the discovery of Brann's journal in Grizzly Hills, we've only had one other communication from Brann. A mysterious note found its way to Explorers' League headquarters in Ironforge, with no indication of where it came from. All it said was that we're to meet Brann at his camp and help him with his search. From what I can tell, the camp should be located northeast of here, across the Bor's Breath River and at the foot of some ruins from the Path of the Titans.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Sirana Iceshriek
This Sirana Iceshriek sounds like the one that's spurring the harpies to be more aggressive. If we kill her, I suspect their attacks won't last long afterwards. One of our stormriders claims to have spotted her circling the peak directly northwest of here. Go find the wench and put her down.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Sniffing Out the Perpetrator
The tone of Brann's note suggests he meant to bury something with the note, maybe a pack of some kind. You're sure this was all you found? Okay, I'm going to have you take one of these frosthounds with you. The frostborn use them for tracking.
