'Hail, stranger! It is good to see a friendly face in times such as these, but what brings you here?

'Rinneldor has sent aid as I had hoped! Caradhras is troubled; something has caused great unease upon his slopes. His winds are cold and biting, and I fear for any who have dared to tread upon him when he is in such a fey mood.

'I cannot leave my post, but perhaps you could travel to the mountain's lower slopes and look for signs of the Company? Travel north-east to the Redhorn Gate and look for any signs of them where the trees and snows meet.'

Ruidhriel is south and west of the Redhorn Gate, near the Burnt Tor.

You should return to Ruidhriel and tell her what you found.
