There is a ringwall of chest-high grey stone that crowns the top of the steep, stony hill. Its windswept crown is visible for miles. The hill offers commanding views with the slopes at a dangerous angle to the north and west and only slightly less dangerous to east. The Fist is a hill that rises above the Forest around it. It is where the Night's Watch fought the Battle of the Fist of the First Men. The Fist of the First Men is an ancient ringfort built by the First Men in the Dawn Age.
