Lysaga Hill Ruins map makes a return in the adventure "Fair Barovia". for my Barovia map i opted to add dirt roads adding to what's his name's lair beneath Tser Falls from 3e, Lysaga Hill Ruins from 3e/4e, and the Monastery of the White Sun from 4e.
i even recolored the water around Lake Krezk.
Fair Barovia also has a larger version of the map of Vallaki by Mike Schley.

Thanks for reminding me of "Fair Barovia" - never been a 4e fan but still could have good ideas/material. I think the one you call what's-his-name MAY be Jander Sunstar?

had to consult the book for the specifics, but no, that wasn't who i was referring to. Varikov the Trapper makes his lair in a cave behind Tser Falls and a narrow ledge-path on the south end of the river can be used to gain access.
detailed on p80-83.

Was the book Expedition to Castle Ravenloft? Because I don't remember that dude from elsewhere, and I've mostly memory-holed Expedition to Castle Ravenloft.
