The One Where I Discover The Dun Morogh Sledders

I would like to say that this post was my attempt at being clever, that I created this as a way of mentally escaping from the weeks of sizzling summer temperatures over 100 degrees. But that wouldn’t be true. Truth is this post was born from my ignorance and not my cleverness. Just last night, for the first time ever, I accidentally found the Dun Morogh Sledders on the west side of the mountain that contains Ironforge. Somehow I had never even heard about them before.

You guys, they actually sled down the hill and then they pull their sleds back up the hill. It’s so cute. They’ve thought of everything here. There is a huge mound of snow at the bottom of the sledding path that the dwarves run into to stop. When the dwarf pulling the sled up the hill gets to the top he raises his arms in victory. There’s an old troll cave nearby where a couple of dwarves are tending a fire and watching over some barrels of brew. I’m assuming this is where the sledders go to warm up and hydrate after they’ve made the uphill trip a few times. There’s even a cute little puppy named Ollie who is being hauled around on a sled. I’m guessing he’s there in case someone needs to be rescued. The whole thing was so adorable. Plenty-o-screenshots incoming.
