We need to work together on this one guys...

The dark wood no doubt is Dimholt -> dark wood

But I cant figure out what city on a river were talking about? much less which bridge we're talking about? can anyone help?

I believe the city is Osgiliath, since I think that's the closest city on a river from the Dead Marshes (where I ended up 250 miles from Edoras). A bridge upstream on the Anduin? Are there even any?

NK's on the right track.

The only place Anduin was ever bridged was IN OSGILIATH... I dont think its Osgilliath, but Im not sure...

Well, the bridge is supposed to be upstream from Osgiliath. Cair Andros perhaps?

Firefoot · 11-25-2005, 09:54 AM

Nope. There actually was a bridge there at one point.

The bridge at the Old Ford south of Carrock! Where the Old Forest Road crosses Anduin. From there to Rivendell? The High Pass? I'm lost...

well if you come from the south and turn left at the Old Ford

... until you're on a north/south line with Dimholt, then you're more or less in Rivendell - from there you go 150 miles to the northeast and end up where R Rimdath og The Rushdown meets the Anduin....?
