Objectives

Deliver Mountaineer Gretchen's Report back to Senir Whitebeard in Kharanos.

Description

Hopefully ye put down a fair number of the mongrels while you were in there. Shame about Cornelius, though.

From what you described, there's not much to report other than the cave is a lost cause. Whitebeard's not gonna like that answer, but I'm not darin' sendin' anybody else into that death trap.

Feel free tae pass along the message, <name>. I'm not leavin' this spot till the mountain's secure.

Secure the Mountain: what the quest data says

A character needs to be level 4 to pick up Secure the Mountain, 4 levels below the quest's own level of 8. Handing it in pays 70 experience. The quest log files it under Dun Morogh.

Creatures it names that have their own pages: Senir Whitebeard.

It follows Secure the Mountain in the cached quest chain.

This quest does not exist in the Classic Era client (1.15.9.70003): its id is missing from that client's quest table. The beta cache first recorded it in build 70058.

Next to it by level among the quests filed under Dun Morogh: Secure the Mountain (level 8), Frosthowl (level 9) and Frostmane Hold (level 9).

10 other quests in the cache are also level 8, among them A Favor for Evershine, At War With The Scarlet Crusade, Dawn in the Mountains and Goldtooth. The 25 quests filed under Dun Morogh run from level 5 to level 15, and 10 of them are new compared with Classic Era. Experience for level 8 quests in the cache ranges from 70 to 880; this one pays 70.

The quest text names Kharanos; this is what the game client holds on it. Kharanos is an area of Dun Morogh, in Eastern Kingdoms.
