Shale should remember something and mark the location of Cadash Thaig on your map.

Head down the path defeating the Darkspawn and Shrieks that attack. Follow the path north checking the rubble as you go. Shale will note that this is Cadash Thaig and that he wants to venture further. Defeat the numerous enemies and check the Strange Crystal Cluster to your right. Up the path to the left is a chest. Further along is a Hurlock Emissary that drops a Blood-Gorged Amulet . There is a chest and pile of junk nearby as well. Cross the bridge and take out the Deep Stalkers and Darkspawn.

To the immediate left is some rubble and the right is a wooden crate. Where the Darkspawn were lies a pile of bones and a pile of junk. Follow the path to another pile of bones and further south and to the east is a chest that, when approached, spawns Deep Stalkers. The southern nook has another pile of bones then continue down the path and fight more Deep Stalkers that spawn on top of you eventually spawning the Deep Stalker Leader.
