In briefanswer capsule

Maglor’s Gap lay between the northern arms of Gelion under Maglor’s charge. At one spot the hills stopped altogether and left a free passage. Orcs entered East Beleriand that way before the Third Battle. The Noldor therefore kept cavalry on the plains there, and Caranthir’s people fortified the mountains east of Maglor’s Gap.
