Actually, Tolkien wrote that Gimli wanted to accompany his father on the Quest of Erebor, but he was judged to be too young (or too immature? irresponsible?) at the time. That would definitely place him in the Ered Luin.Falenthal wrote:That's probably so, but we don't know if, at any time before the Quest of Erebor he could have wandered to the Iron Hills to live his life there. I don't think it's likely, but also not impossible.
