The EWF (as do Alakoring and his friends) fly over the Rockwoods rather than make a landward pass through Dorastor. It's not a barrier but rather something safely observed from a distance.
Dorastor is dead until awakened by the God Learners.
780 God Learners travel into Dorastor and are never seen
again. I believe this is the expedition that tried to
raise Ralzakark on the grounds they couldn't believe
he was evil.
798 Orlanth Priests fly over Kartolin. They report Elves were
still living in the forests of Dorastor that surrounded
a vast ash plain.
800 A huge fire burns in Dorastor. Taken as an ill-omen.
824 EWF expedition to recover ash and water. They
report things that go bump in the night, a hill
that moved around, a mysterious city and an
earthquake. All expedition members die violently
within three years of returning with blood bubbling
from their lips.
850 Telmori move into Dorastor.
852 A Seshnegi knight leads a caravan into Dorastor
and never returns.
857 Two Talastari heroes enter Dorastor. They return as
Draugr.
1100 First Broo raiders from Dorastor reported in Talastar.

Dorastor:Land of Doom does have some good information. A Fanzine that would be helpful if you can get it is the Book of Drastic Resolutions (Chaos) which contains a map of Dorastor circa 900 ST but I dunno how easy it is to get that.
