The Forsaken Sepulchers, the Wretched Depths, and the Desolate Shrines combine into a single great “dungeon” known as the Winter Tombs.
This map is designed to be printed on a single ledger (11″ x 17″) page at six squares per inch. It is made available for your personal use in three resolutions – click on the version to embiggen it:
The Winter Tombs – 1200dpi (8MB)
This is the big one. 1200dpi – suitable for printing anywhere or blowing up to incredible sizes and still have the print quality be good.
The Winter Tombs – 600 dpi (3MB)
This 600 dpi version is suited to regular printing and still retains most of the detail of the 1200 dpi version. You won’t notice the difference between them visually when printed.
The Winter Tombs – VTT Edition
This final version is a jpg instead of a PNG because raw B&W bitmapping at 70 pixels per square instead of 200 looks very rough. This one is for people using VTT software and has been resized to 70 pixels per square.
jim pinto (crafter of hundreds of excellent RPGs & RPG products, and also known for the World’s Largest Dungeon) is in the process of writing up an intensely tasty adventure to go along with these maps. More details on his Winter Tombs as they become available.

Glorious!!! I look forward to hearing what Mr. Pinto comes up with! Populating such a monster would take me an age and a day.
Hi! Why is there one section of the maps missing? I saw (and downloaded) “Desolate Shrines” which you say is the East Map, “Forgotten Sepulchers” which you say is the South map, and “Wretched Depths” which you say is the West map — so where is the North Map? I realize it is a part of the Mega-Dungeon “Winter Tombs”, but is there a separate file for just the North Map?
No, there are only the three maps – to make a North Map I would have had rebuild the map so that the other three sections were smaller.
Such an incredible work! I don’t have enough life span to play all the awesome maps you gave to the world.
Reblogged this on DDOCentral.
Very nice work, Dyson! It’s great to see you returning to some larger format maps—this one, as well as the Jakallan Underworld 😀
Allan.
This would be an interesting collaborative project. Map looks great.
What do the stars signify?
Generally speaking, statues, but it is up to the DM based on the feel they want.

This is beautiful and inspiring. I really want to kill some PCs with it.
