Gimli's Route to Rivendell

[Rumil]

Yeah High Pass I think it has to be-

after all

it is better than the honey-cakes of the Beornings, and that is great praise, for the Beornings are the best bakers that I know of; and they are none too willing to deal out their cakes to travellers in these days

Not conclusive of course but I think with the "Many Meetings" quote this strengthens the argument that Gimli had recently visited the Beornings and travelled via the ford of Carrock and the High Pass.

Doesn't Gloin also grumble over the high tolls the Beorings charge for passage though their lands while maintaining that they still should be commended for keeping the High Pass accessible?

Yup, it must be the High Pass...
