Yes! this is seriously the best solution to the problem that I have heard yet. It's totally lore friendly as I see it because the dwarfs WOULD have maps to their own mines, wouldn't they?
I've just started my own trek into the mistlands and I have to say that either the mist OR terrain alone would be enough but both together is a bit brutal. Having maps to the mine locations would go a long way toward easing player frustrations without actually lessening the difficulty too much.
