And if the mountain giants were a pain because they made the passes dangerous, and the only reason the Dwarves would use them, is to stop people and tax others? Why not just make sure everyone knows the passes are dangerous? Then people have to go through Khazad-dum, and can be taxed there, or be killed by the stone giants, if they're as dangerous and problematic to the passes as you say. Yet again, it is highly likely that they kept those passes. Give me a reason of why not! And there was plently of trade over the mountains! Think of Eregion, the Woodland Realm and Lothlorien! The Dwarves living in Zagh Kala and Gundabad and the other places in the mountains inhabited by the Dwarves! Think of Arnor and the Valesmen and Rhovanion! They would have all been crossing the Misties for trade!
