Durin the father of dwarves woke up at Mount Gundabad, or am i wrong? I belive to have read it somewhere, that Mount Gundabad became one of the most important dwarven cities.

In The Hobbit there are references to Mount Gundabad as being 'the capital of orcs.'

What i am wondering is, what happened to Mount Gundabad. was it assailed bu orcs in the first age? Did the dwarves abandon the mountain. I have been pondering about it a long time, and i have not found any answeres yet.
