Mount Gram was a mountain of unspecified location.
History
Mount Gram was inhabited by Orcs led by their King Golfimbul. In Third Age 2747 they attacked much of northern Eriador, but were defeated in the Battle of Greenfields.[1]
Location
The location of Mount Gram has never been established. It is generally assumed that it is one of the Misty Mountains since only the Orcs of the Misty Mountains are mentioned to invade Eriador around the 2nd millennium of the Third Age[2]; those that invaded the Shire (and mentioned to come from Gram), could have also been a bunch of those. However, as any confirmation lacks, the mountain could be anywhere within the northern Eriador region.
This must be the reason why Robert Foster also mentions Gram to be one of the Misty Mountains, although he doesn't cite a specific source or reason to do so.[3] and
On the other hand, Karen Wynn Fonstad (also without explanation) places it on a promontory in the Ettenmoors.[4]
