Northern Latitudes of Middle earth
|
Can't Post
|
|
While reading TH as a kid
there was a snow storm and it
seem that we were
in the
northern latitudes...
Then the Lord of the Rings
was like
a" world tour of Middle earth?"
Even down to Rohan
and finally mordor
The Hobbit is literally the same latitude across Middle Earth so temperate rainforests are going to be
Mossy Mirkwood
