Howling Fjord

Notes: Most land in the Howling Fjord is high above sea level. 5 separate lifts have been built along the cliff-face to allow travel up from sea level. A ropeway also links the west coast to the Tuskarr village of Kamagua. A "turtle boat" can be used to travel between here, Moa'ki Harbor (Dragonblight), and Kaskala (Borean Tundra). The Howling Fjord contains several large inland lakes and rivers, including the Whisper Gulch flowing west from Lake Cauldros in the center of the zone, and Caldemere Lake near the Alliance town of Fort Wildervar. Valgarde is built on the shores of Daggercap Bay - a deep a sea fjord.

Skill: 475 to fish without junk.

History: Wrath of the Lich King: Northrend opened.

Howling Fjord - Whisper Gulch

  1. Luiniel, December 2008:

    Strangly this subzone seems to get the coastal fish, but the inland pools -- I was fishing a Fangtooth Herring pool but when I missed I got a Rockfin Grouper and a Borean Man O'War.

    The coast just outside it however is marked 'Howling Fjord' so gets the coastal pools and the inland fish !
