		A few miles north, high up in the angle where the western spur branched away from the main range, stood the old castle of Durthang, now one of the many orc-holds that clustered about the dale of Udûn.
		As for Durthang guarding a way into Mordor, it is possible I suppose, as there are presumably more passes over the Mountains of Shadow that Cirith Ungol and the Morgul pass.
		Durthang sounds very reasonable for me. But I also agree that Gandalf probably didn't have any specific plans.
