As the Fellowship entered Hollin, Gimli stated that he had seen the Mountains of Moria from afar "once before in waking life".
Presumably that would have been on the east side of the Misty Mountains, in Wilderland. But what would Gimli have been doing so far south, probably at or even below the Gladden Fields and not too far from Lorien and Dol Guldur ?
