Spine of the World Mountains

The Spine of the World is a mountain range that stretches across the northwest region of Faerûn from the Cold Run near the Sea of Moving Ice, to the Ice Spires north of the Silver Marches.
Folks all across the lands of the Savage Frontier and the Silver Marches, particularly those in Scornubel, refer to the Spine as "the Wall". On the winter days when the white snow covered peaks meet the iron-gray of the sunless winter sky, it appears as though the peaks are holding up sky. To others, the mountains simply mark the end of the world as they see it. The Spine of the World mountains shield the civilizations of the North from the freezing expanse of the Uttermost North, the Reghed Glacier and the Endless Ice Sea.
Geographical Features To many Faerûnians, the Spine of the World is simply an endless, nearly–impassable range of high, jagged, perpetually ice-covered mountains. While the western-most edge of the Spine is penetrated by a circuitous, always dangerous trade route to Icewind Dale, the rest of the range is not even approached by those without a stout heart.
There are four well known sister peaks that are referred to as Firstpeak, Secondpeak, Thirdpeak, and Fourthpeak. The sister mountains are so similar in height that they seem to form a single line. The northern slopes of the mountains have plentiful enough trees that loggers of the Ten Towns risk regular treks back-and-forth across the tundras. The southern slopes, located near the Druarwood and Moonwood forests, are referred to as the Lands Against the Wall.
Like much of the North, these mountains have a subarctic climate. As expected for mountains of their height, the Spine of the World experiences extreme icy winds. As a result, the mountains experience frequent rock slides.
