Alliance Borean Tundra Guide Part 1
Level 71

Note: Make sure you have an Overcharged Capacitator before you sail off to the Borean Tundra!

Also, for those who are truly diligent and have followed the Gold Guide, you'll have a nice stash of gold to purchase your Epic Flying Mount at Honor Hold in the Outlands (Cost: 5,000g training + 100g for the mount). If not, there's no better time to start the guide than now, to make sure that you'll at least be able to fly in style starting at level 80! Note that you can't fly until you've learned Cold Weather Flying (Learnable at Level 77, or at Level 68 with the Heirloom Item: Tome of Cold Weather Flight if you already have one Level 80 character)
