And I know Gandalf, Aragorn etc rode to Mordor to keep Sauron's eye on them to increase Frodo and Sam's chances, but it still seems incredible to me that they could cross Mordor with the ring without being discovered. https://files8.webydo.com/9583123/UploadedFiles/55FC8BEF-8A14-C841-999C-DFD1A38355DF.pdf https://cdn.starwebserver.se/shops/aaronhermanssoniv/files/creating-significant-learning-experiences-an-integrated-approach-to-designing-college- c.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9582961/UploadedFiles/038D48EC-18DB-6A61-79E1-6BBBBC948830.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9583432/UploadedFiles/0807B593-0FD9-EBF7-9855-7EE0CBD58B1A.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9583475/UploadedFiles/66FE27A8-E567-06D4-20FF-1CD99F48C8B6.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9583841/UploadedFiles/711EBDD8-167B-2BCA-980C-29FDDAFBD8B0.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9583151/UploadedFiles/A1B11E95-3CE5-13C1-DBF0-C3281689D651.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9583557/UploadedFiles/05E118B8-6F1C-B554-9E89-6ABFB7D444A8.pdf.
