Don't waste time watching videos. From Mayla, take the NW tunnel exit (Path of Earth).
Grab the treasure chest from the canoe below the bridge. Once across the log bridge, your target is just on the left.

For those having trouble starting this quest on alts, there is a previous quest, [quest=39989], from Warbrave Oro at 36.0, 65.8, that will take you to [npc=93826] to start The Rivermane Tribe quest.
to quote Doublezz from Warbrave Oro
If you cannot start this quest you need to start the quest The Lone Mountain which is given by a Tauren named Warbrave Oro of the Highmountain Tribe, if they cannot be seen on Krasus' Landing in Dalaran you need to accept the Highmountain Questline at your class hall mission table in Legion first by selecting the Scouting map tab and clicking on the Highmountain area, accepting the quest. After, Warbrave Oro in Dalaran will be visible to start the quest The Lone Mountain.

What to do
Description
What has happened here requires more time than I have to explain. In short, our tribes have scattered in the wake of the attack that left the Hammer of Khaz'goroth in the hands of the barbaric drogbar. Even now the drogbar are raiding the Rivermane tribe, and I have too few braves left to send to their aid. We need a hero. Please, go to Earthmother's Bounty and lend what aid you can.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Keepers of the Hammer
The Highmountain Tribes had intended to pledge our allegiance to your forces. We know war has come with the Burning Legion. However, we have been betrayed from within and must now ask for your aid. A great relic, the Hammer of Khaz'goroth, was stolen from our people by the vile drogbar.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ormgul the Pestilent
We've lived at peace with the drogbar for years--our tribe even more than the others. But we were betrayed in our last trade with them at Riverbend. They usually supply us with potent alchemy to prevent insects from infesting our fields.
