Location

Erforgh Cleft is a landmark within Southern High Pass in The Misty Mountains ^{[29.6S, 9.1E]}

This large gauredain camp is situated in the far south-east corner of the southern High Pass, and it is reached through either of two openings, both from the wider lake south of Northtarn. Both of these passages are marked by the presence of gauredain and wolves. ^{[29.0S, 8.5E]} ^ ^{[29.3S, 8.0E]}

Innermost of the cleft is a freezing-cold pond with a cliff in the middle, which provides a safe hideout for adventurers wanting a brief rest. Straight east of that cliff is Jakka found, the gauredain leader, but he is unreachable from there, even for the most keen-eyed Elf.

Lore

The Erforgh Cleft is a massive jumble of rocks and frozen streams left behind by some great mass of ice in ages past. Now it offers some semblance of shelter from the most brutal mountain winds to a nomadic tribe of Gauredain who have made their home here.

Whether the Gauredain came here of their own accord or were directed here by the Enemy is uncertain, but their presence is troubling nonetheless. — Deed text
