The Locations of the Most Abundant Amounts of Blisterwort in Skyrim
Blisterwort is used in many different potions and recipes to help create many different items within The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - the Skyrim world, and beyond. It is a mushroom or fungi and therefore will grow best if not only in dank shaded areas or underground. In fact the darker the better. Underground is where it can be most commonly found and found in the largest quantities as well. Caves are the perfect place to find them and these caves may well be teeming with large spiders, Skeevers, skeletons, and bandits that are looking to kill you, or kill and eat you, or kill you after eating you.. but these caves are the number one location for Blisterwort.
Chillwind Depths
Chillwind Depths is the number one place to find Blisterwort. This is due to it being a very large and partially underwater cave. It can be found between Dragon Bridge and Morthal. You enter this amazing loot spot via an entrance that is next to a waterfall.
Players with arachnophobia beware though for inside you will find a lot of spiders. The upside of this is that they can be killed and you can harvest their Frostbite Venom and this of course can be used in recipes and portion creation as well as applying it to your weapons and making them drain enemies health, stamina or magic depending on how you were to use it.
Here you will find no less that fourty five Blisterwort.

Tolvald's Cave
Tolvald's Cave is fairly large and with that it has a large amount of Blisterwort too. You can access this cave by making your way to or from Ansilvund from or to Shor's Watchtower. While you are down in the cave be careful of the Falmer who live down there. A larger word of caution would be to look out for the two trolls that hang around this area. They are pretty tough and they of course regenerate health very quickly.
Here you will find no less that fourteen Blisterwort.
North from Riften
Here is the Cave
Tada!

Halldir's Cairn
You can find the Blisterwort and Halldir's Cairn to the southwest of Falkreath. This is one of the nicest looking locations you can find Blisterwort. It's not the nicest but it is certainly up there in the list.
Here you will find no less that ten Blisterwort.

Lost Prospect Mine
Lost Prospect Mine can be found by heading east from Riften. It lies to right next to a mountain that is on the cusp of the furthermost mountain. There will be things lurking in the dark so expect a fight to get your hands on that Blisterwort.
Here you will find no less that nine Blisterwort.

Fallowstone Cave
Fallowstone Cave is another cave that lies east of Riften. I would call it more north eastern from Riften to be honest. You should be able to find no less than seven Blisterwort down here, along with some other useful items.
Here you will find no less that seven Blisterwort.

Robber's Cove
Robber's Cove is located by accessing Robber's Gorge. Robber's Cove itself is located between Dragon Bridge and Rorikstead however, as mentioned you can only access it via Robber's Gorge which can be found south of Solitude and south west of Morthal. You will have to kill off the bandit's at Robber's Gorge and loot a chest which has a key to a hatch that will take you to Robber's Cove.
You will find a minimum of six Blisterwort here.
South west of here
To access the Cove you have to enter via Robber's Gorge

Graywinter Watch
Graywinter Watch can be found east of Whiterun. If you go exactly east though you will hit a mountain. Do not be fooled and look in this area though. Make your way along the mountainside and as you head north you will find Graywinter Watch.
Here you will find no less that six Blisterwort.
East from here - whiterun

Nice view. High up on the mountain side.
Hiding from the trolls, this is a view from inside
Dead Drop Falls
In order to get to Dead Drop Falls you will need to go to Fort Dawnguard. If you only have the base game - which at this stage would be very odd if you do not have as they sell the game with all the expansion packs now - you will not be able to access this location. If you do have the Dawnguard part of the game you will will find Dead Drop Falls inside the Fort. However, that's not the end of it. You cannot access Fort Dawnguard by simply walking in the gate. You have to access it via Dayspring Canyon .. which has no locator icon on the map - it's almost like they don't want you to play the game. The entrance to Dayspring Canyon can be found by crossing the bridge on your way to the Fort and keeping an eye on the left side of the road. It is not very long at all after the bridge.
Here you will find no less than six Blisterwort.

Darklight Tower
Darklight Tower is located south west of Riften. I can be easily pinpointed by following the edge of the lake to the west of Riften and the when you are aligned with the furthest part of the island above you, head straight south.
There are at least five Blisterwort in this location.
White River Watch
White River Watch is another location to find Blisterwort. This is at a location that is pretty close to where everyone will generally start the game. It can be found east of Whiterun. This is a similar direction to somewhere mentioned earlier but instead of head north when you hit the mountain's edge, go south. This is also a bandit's hideout so expect a fight before you can pick your Blisterwort.
Here you will find a fair amount of Blisterwort.

Wolfskull Cave
Ah yes, another cave. And by now we all know what you can find in caves. Wolfskull Cave is no different to any other cave, you will be able to find yourself some Blisterwort if you head west from Solitude or north east from Dragon Bridge. If you leave from Solitude you will have to walk along the base of a mountain - still east - and head north when the terrain allows.
Here you will find a fair amount of Blisterwort.
West from here and then hard north once the mountain parts

Proudspire Manor
Boasting as the pricest house in the Skyrim universe, Proudspire Manor sure doesn't seem like anyone cares about it on the inside. And this I guess is why the Blisterwort likes it here. You will find this building next to the Bards College within Solitude.
Here you will find a fair amount of Blisterwort.
