Red Eagle Redoubt

Red Eagle Redoubt is a small cave occupied by Forsworn located east of Markarth.

Looking down over the altar area in Red Eagle Ascent

The map location is near the highest point of this small range; just southwest of Sundered Towers which lies at the peak. The surrounding area is populated by a large number of Forsworn of increasing skill as the player approaches the peak, which itself is home to several elk.

The cave of Red Eagle Ascent is populated with a few Forsworn and has a steep set of stairs with an altar at the top. There is one iron ore vein, a poison dart trap activated by a pressure plate, an oil slick trap activated by a tripwire, and some bear traps. There is also a lever on a brazier that activates a falling stone trap. Several chests with random leveled loot can be found here.

Bugs

• Looking at the world map when inside the Red Eagle Ascent places your marker north-northwest of Markarth. ^?
• If you have previously killed the leader of the Red Eagle Redoubt and get the task to kill him again you must reanimate the body and kill him a second time. You may get this task while trying to purchase a house in Markarth from the Jarl. ^?
