CE Palmar standing by Creag nan Uamh (Crag of the Caves) the caves in a limestone cliff, about 200 ft. above Allt nan Uamh - a tributary of the Loanan, near Inchnadamph, Assynt. Scanned from a slide taken by CE Palmar. Bones of brown bear, reindeer, lynx, arctic fox, wolf, and the skull of a polar bear have been identified dating back beyond the last ice age and the preceding two interglacial periods (middle and late Devensian) over 45,000 years ago. As one of the few limestone districts in Scotland, this valley is extremely popular with cavers. The Bone Caves themselves do not extend far into the hillside, but the entrance to the longest cave system in Scotland, the Uamh an Claonaite, is nearby. The caves are now an SSSI.
