North of Bayport, the mountains are wild, and nearly impassable. At least, they are extremely difficult to cross from the south. Swinging wide around the peninsulas extending from Kiel and Anspeth into the Glacier Bay, past the major port of Clear Harbor to Pinching, you can find easier access.
A river runs east and south down from the mountains to Pinching. The Iron Teeth are much easier to access from the north. Dwarves have opened mines throughout the mountains between the sea and Aron's Bowl. Aron's Bowl is a broad plain high on a mountain plateau within a ring of particularly high peaks. These are dominated to the southwest by a towering volcanic peak, generally referred to as Scarred Peak for the many jagged clefts and ravines splitting it apart. These have come from the many eruptions through the years.
It is believed that the mountain is home to an ancient red dragon. Access to the mountain is hindered by an area of swampy, brackish horrors known as the Molten Hills for its combination of lava, swamp and fetid pools.
