Now I know why I had to clean him out.

The path is actually at 53,8
The coordinates to the path is 53, 8 as mentioned above. Don't go shooting up north to Grizzly Hills, or you've gone too far. The path forks off the main road and goes up the mountain to the east.
61,2 is the coordinates of the actual shrine, although that's not too helpful (:
Only one person needs cleanse the guy. We can all share inner turmoils!
Edit: Doh. Looks like if you aren't the one that performs the quest, you won't get the Meditation buff, just credit for completion. Don't jump off ><

Description
Of late I've had nightmares concerning a worg named Ulfang. He has called out for help, and you must go to him. However, you do not have the means to speak with him, or walk amongst the other worgs. I know a way. But first, you must cleanse your inner turmoil through meditation. There is a shrine that sits at the top of Frostblade Peak, far to the northeast. A single path leads up to it from the western base of the mountain. Meditate there to cleanse yourself and then return to me.
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.

You were right to bring this to me, <name>. You must venture to Gjalerbron and slay that wyrm and its master, Wyrmcaller Vile! Even now, as we speak here, the frost wyrm may be on its way.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Worg's Clothing
From my dreams, I know that Ulfang is in a cave on the snowy northwestern edge of the Rivenwood. He is in great danger! I have devised a magical disguise that will make you appear as a worg while you are within the Rivenwood.
