Boulderfall Cave

Boulderfall Cave is a small cave northwest of Riften and west of Shor's Stone inhabited by leveled necromancers.

The cave is fairly out of the way in the wilderness. There is a small game trail that runs near the cave, but it is most easily spotted by a hostile necromancer that acts as the apprentice for the master within.

Interior

The cave is very short with a narrow descending path to a small room. Several bone rattle traps line the passageway making it very difficult to sneak up on the necromancer that is toiling away on an alchemy lab. Players may struggle with this high-level caster. Slaying the necromancer doesn't yield much loot for the effort either. There are stray alchemy ingredients, a trapped chest, a corundum ore vein and a copy of the Alchemy skill book Herbalist's Guide to Skyrim.

NOTE: Some radiant quests have a sizeable list of possible locations. These quests are not placed on individual place pages, and are instead listed at radiant quest locations.

Notes

• Southwest of the cave entrance, two leveled bandits and their dog have taken up residence in a ruined hut. Among their meager possessions is a copy of the Block skill book Battle of Red Mountain.
