Our little story...
We went to see the Bone Caves, wearing our rubber boots, on November 20. Before we set off, Janis, our host, told us a story related to these caves. During the numerous conflicts between the Scots and the English (I can no longer place this story in time), the English sought to enlist the Scots in the army. Not wanting to fight for the English, the young men of the village of Inchnadamph hid in these caves perched high in the cliffs. The name “Bone Caves” is not linked to this history, but to the fact that bones of polar bears, lynx, wolves, reindeer and humans have been found there. There are 13 cavities that go into the rock. When we went there, we saw the two main ones, which overlook the outside, and a couple who had set up camp, offered to show us the next cave, caving style.
