I will have to check that out sometime.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Wow, hadn't noticed that; will have to look out for it next time. Just out of curiosity; why would Gollum climb so high? It would be an awful lot of work and he could paddle along in the river much more comfortably. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I have an answer to that. In the book Gollum is seen following the fellowship and gets real close one night as they are laying on the shore and is almost caught by Aragorn. After which everyone is especially on the look out for him but he cannot be seen.<P>Tolkien expressly writes more than once I believe that if Gollum is still following them he was very "wary and cunning" <P>Well thats a pretty cunning take on why the fellowship didn't see him again because obviously he is still following.<P>[ November 20, 2002: Message edited by: GreyIstar ]<p>[ November 20, 2002: Message edited by: GreyIstar ]
