As cool as that map may be it is unfortunately UTTERLY inaccurate in regards to the area of Eriador and how it connects to the ble Mountains.

Such a place as that map depicts never existed at any one time in M-E [ in the regions of the blue mountains at least] and was apparently a misguided attempt to put all of the eggs in one nest.

Unfortunately even that fact does not alter the fact that the paths of the Dead and Gondolin wer not even remotely close to each other in time or place. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
