Diagnosing a freeze that doesn't occur until later on in a playthrough?

[InDarkestNight]

I keep getting this random freeze around the entrance to Solitude. Problem is I'm playing Legacy of the Dragonborn, so I'm having to go to Solitude quite frequently. Just now I froze upon fast travelling to freaking Solitude.

 

I have no clue what could be causing this. Its persisted between multiple games, and worse yet it doesn't start to occur until I'm fairly deep into my game. I'm actually getting sick of re-playing the start of my play-through over and over again.

 

I have no clue what mod could be causing this. I have an extremely minimal load order that's nothing but graphics mods, patches, and the various mods that Legacy of the Drabonborn has displays for.

 

I know how to do the trial by elimination method, but as I said this never happens when I'm level 1. I have no clue what could be causing this, and I'm sick of having to sign out and sign back in again just to get my computer un-frozen.

 

How on earth could I possibly find the cause of this? I need the freaking Dev Aveza so I can completely dodge having to walk through the exteriors of cities, but you can't get that until you're at least level 18. This is just so stupid. Point is, I can't find a work-around in-game to this issue, and I also can't find what is causing it. What, do I need to disable ALL OF MY GRAPHICS MODS and see if the issue persists? This is so utterly idiotic. My game's now somehow more unstable than SE, even though I didn't have to worry about crashes or freezes until I started attempting this stupid challenge. Is it LotD that's causing this? Am I unable to do this stupid challenge at all? I'm starting to suspect that, given how few mods I have installed.
