‘Caradhras was called the Cruel, and had an ill name,’ said Gimli, ‘long years ago, when rumour of Sauron had not been heard in these lands.’
– The Fellowship of the Ring (Book 2), Chapter 3

The highest peak of the Misty Mountains, Caradhras (or Redhorn) is one of the three mountain peaks under which the Dwarven realm of Moria lies. The Redhorn Pass, a dangerous high pass over the mountains, leads along its slopes.
