The Western Reaches of the Ered Glos

The Western reaches of the Ered Glos terminate in wild and uncivilized lands of Calendrudor. Snow-storms and powerful winds are strongest here, and the peaks and slopes are steeper and more treacherous. Compared to the rest of the Ered Glos, the west was only recently occupied; the Norsans found the climate and altitude unsuitable for their great civilization, and only a few Ursani cities were built here. Only with the coming of the Kuzaki Dwarves, a hardy and resistant folk, were the harsh climes and deep chasms properly conquered.
==The Duinon River==
The great river Duinon, which flows south from Malidor, passes through the western flanks of the Ered Glos. A wide and navigable river, it is nevertheless avoided by the mariners who traverse the river futher north, through Daenor and Ilmanor. Jagged rocks, scattered shallows and strong winds make the river dangerous to all but the very best sailors.
The Duinon valley is lush and forested, and contains most of the ruined Ursani cities which occupied this part of the range. The Gold Trail crosses the river via the majestic Golden Arch, a dwarven-built bridge of outstanding beauty.
==The Casar River==
The Casar river is an off-shoot of the great Duinon, and flows parallel to it many miles to the east. Like the Duinon it is wide and mostly difficult to navigate. It is crossed by the Dwarron Bridge, a stone bridge with over thirty arches, and the site of a great Dwarven battle.
==Dolen Valley==
This beautiful vale is the location of the city of Salasia.
