At the very peak of the Throat of the World, Skyrim's highest point, a pickaxe called the Notched Pickaxe is jammed into the rock. It's a tribute to Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson.

How to find it

Climb past High Hrothgar to the summit of the Throat of the World. Look for the pickaxe stuck in the rocks near the very top.
