The river flows the wrong way in the Hobbit
In the Hobbit it is said that the Dwarves and Bilbo flow along with the current up the River running to where the Dale men love. This always struck me as odd seeing that this would be getting them closer to the source of the river somewhere near Erebor, surely the current would have taken them the other way towards the Sea of Rhun.
A mistake by Tolkien (Blasphemy i know [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]) or have i just made a mistake
