This small bandit hideout lies east of Whiterun’s capital, just across the White River. Pass through the small cave to face the bandits’ leader, who prefers the cold embrace of the outdoor mountain air.
Exterior
Dispatch the exterior guards to secure a chest, then head inside.

White River Watch (Interior)
A blind guard sits just inside the cave—he’ll call for reinforcements if you threaten him. Lie your way past the blind sentry and proceed upstairs. Dispatch or avoid the bandits in the sleeping area that follows. Loot the chest near the cupboard before heading upstairs to discover an Alchemy Lab. Bandits have been mistreating a wolf in the cavern that follows. Free the animal to have it attack its captors, then attack while they’re distracted. Scale the winding ramp to reach a high passage that leads out to the White River Overlook.
