Hey everyone, starting hungry storm tomorrow, just wondering if anyone can recommend anything that you added to the adventure. I am fabricating the route they take and taking a mix of encounters from both paths and randoms to spice up the trip. Just wondering if you added anything in particular to add some Roleplay...maybe some different conversation set pieces, or situations that you created to make the trip a bit more interesting aside from basic combats?

if you're willing to spend a few bucks, I'd check out the "Under Frozen Stars" adventure path plug-in from legendary games, as well as "The Baleful Coven". I added Under Frozen Stars but Baleful Coven wasn't out in time for me to run it as intended so I'm either going to skip it or plug it in later heavily modified.
My group spent some time investigating the monoliths around the path of agheni, but there's not much info in the mod about them other than they exist, so be prepared to wing it a little on that score.
With the Under Frozen Stars plugin, I didn't need to add too many random encounters for XP.
I ran Baleful coven, which was great and your players should enjoy

Lands of the Linnorm Kings is the campaign setting book about this area. It has a lot of story hooks.
I have not yet started GMing JR, but I plan to do some sidequests which will mainly help the party to get its WBL or to strengthen the caravan (more travelers, better motivation, better wagons and installations), by plunging in the background of the PCs and the important NPCs.

I did some custom events. Played up the battle of Dead Man's Dome. Threw in more details about the ruins, and did some work with the various monsters in the areas they passed.
But it was a boring slog otherwise. Personally, I'd have the tower happen sooner, and or maybe better progression to the set pieces.
You could use the paizo module the harrowing, have Koya to bring out the deck.
