Sand Hills
From A Wheel of Time Wiki
The Sand Hills are the foothills of the Mountains of Mist. They are described as great rolling mounds sparsely covered with tough grass and stubborn bushes. They are unpopulated. [1].
They are believed by many in the Two Rivers to be bad luck. Rand al'Thor explored these hills in his youth with Mat and Perrin, going climbing in the cliffs beyond them. Rand recalls digging up huge bones in the sand hills - he dug up part of what he thought was part of a fish as big as a boat once. [2] This is because they were once at the shore of a great ocean before the Breaking of the World.
