The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Talk to Paarthurnax.
1 of 5: As you run down the winding path, you'll have two hazards to watch out for.
2 of 5: One is ice wraiths, which look like flying skeletal eels. Quickly hit them with fire spells and your best weapon to keep them from killing you with their cold damage attacks.
3 of 5: The other hazard is the weather, which can sap your health and stamina. To prevent it from doing that, keep using the Clear Skies shout every time it recharges.
4 of 5: You'll eventually make it to the Throat of the World location, where a dragon will land next to you.
5 of 5: It's Paarthurnax, so don't attack it. Instead, talk to it and then wait to get the next objective.
