1 . Frozen Lake.  This can see Ulduar Ravine and Waterfall's route passing by on the river from EXACTLY on the spawn spot.  Yes, you can't see the harpies.  That's fine.  The harpies have a very small visual range and Time-Lost and Vyragosa have a huge visual range.  If you want to see an example of this in action, go to Icecrown and sit a bit southwest of The Shadow Vault.  Get in range to see all of those frost wyrms down by The Conflaguration.  Look, see all the Frost Wyrms?  Now look down at the ground between you and them.  Looks empty, huh?  You know it's not.  Fly around and get all that stuff on the ground to come into visual range for a minute.  See?  You can see things at various distances.  Just like TLPD / Vyra.  You can see them from the spawn spot.

2 . Waterfall.  This can see the Brunnhildar route in action.

​

3 . Ulduar.  This is important if Frozen Lake and Waterfall are already camped because it has a massive, massive route before it gets to player populated areas.  Plus, if you happen to be wandering aimlessly around your house or neighborhood, and there is a spawn that has enough time to kill you, you have a bigger chance of flying and catching up to it before anybody knows it's up.
​

4 . Brunnhildar.  This is in a heavily traveled area.  Also, if you're wandering your neighborhood and happen to get killed by a spawn and get back, chances are someone down in Brunnhildar has seen and came to kill it, or a Skoll camper, or any of the various quest objectives all around it's path could be housing levelers who see and engage it.

Spawn Time Information

The previous 6 hour no-spawn window which existed in Wrath, no longer exists.  If you don't know what that was, it meant after Vyragosa or Time-Lost were killed, neither would spawn for at least six hours. That only means there would not be a spawn for six hours.  Then, from six hours onward it would become possible.  So it could be six or twenty hours after the last kill.  Now, that spawn window is gone. After The Shattering times as low as 45 minutes (three times so far) or more commonly low times would be 3-5 hours after have been documented.  So after a kill, I would suggest just staying out there permanently (or as permanently as you can) until you get Time-Lost.  This will help you in three destinctive ways.  Firstly it will keep you from leaving, letting the spot be open for someone else to come jump into.  The tough shit rule applies, someone's there after you're gone and you become the stacker if you go jump back in, regardless of time spent there.  Secondly it doesn't give others the "Oh, they took off again. Must not be a spawn possible right now."  Thirdly it lessons the chance you miss a spawn that came freakishly early.

If you want to speed up spawn times you absolutely have to have a friend / multiple friends out killing every single rare they can find in Northrend.  Yes, they are definitely connected.  We did the research and it was absolutely conclusive that keeping the rares killed in Northrend caused the spawns of Vyra/TLPD to happen literally twice as fast.  The spawn times went from 14-20 hours in betwen to 6-11.  So that's an average of 8-10 hours into a live spawn window dropped down to 0-5 hours after.  And this was before cataclysm.  Now it's a higher spawn rate.  Thus, where people before were seeing 1-3 spawns a day, people now are seeing 3-5.  Granted, the higher numbers are on servers where the rares are being killed quickly.
