Misty Mountains

The Misty Mountains, or Hithaeglir [Sindarin; hîth (mist) + aeglir (range of mountain peaks)], was a mountain range that ran 1280 kilometres (795.35 miles) from north to south between Eriador and the valley of the Great River, Anduin, and from Mount Gundabad in the far north to Methedras in the south. An early version of its name was Ered Hithui [Sindarin; ered (mountains) + hithui (misty)].
