When was Gandalf in Moria? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Just curious if this is adressed anywhere? When did Gandalf make his first trip through Moria, and what were the circumstances surrounding it?

On a similar topic, I'm reading the trilogy for the 6th time, and find Aragorn's insistance that if they do enter Moria that Gandalf personally will be in danger? How does he know this? Why does he believe this? I assume that he either had a "dream" or is thinking of some omen or prophesy, though no explanation seems to be evident in the text...
