Bleakwind Basin is a giant's encampment located in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

It is inhabitated by two giants tending their mammoths. Several pouches of Mammoth Cheese Bowl can be found around the bonfire. There are some Bleeding Crown and a nirnroot.

QuestsEdit

• Bounty quest - slay one of the giants for the local jarl.

TriviaEdit

• To the northeast of Bleakwind Basin there is a creek leading into a small pool. In the middle of the pool there is a skeleton's arm protruding from the water, grasping a leveled sword. This is a notable easter egg, referencing Excalibur and the Lady of the Lake in King Arthur.

• A possible location of Meridia's Beacon.

BugsEdit

• After the camp is cleared, there is a chance the giants and mammoths there won't respawn.
