One of the things I'm most looking forward to in Cataclysm is getting to see Hyjal in the present day. I still remember the first time my wife (her hunter pictured above) and I made our way inside and took a look around the deserted world tree Nordrassil, with Archimonde's remains hanging from the branches.
Very eerie and one of my favorite moments in the game. In Cataclysm, we'll actually get a chance to level in the zone (as we found out recently) and I'm stoked. So I was excited to see this preview map of Mount Hyjal modified by the folks at World of Raids to give you an idea of what the quest hubs will look like. It's interesting to see that this time levelling progression is taking flying mounts into account in their design of the zone (apparently, at least) rather than enforcing linear ground travel. Combined with the idea of getting to interact with Malfurion and possibly even resurrect Cenarius himself, I'm beside myself waiting to get a crack at defending the world tree from Ragnaros and his minions. It can't happen too soon as far as I'm concerned.
