Great set of photos Gladman. I followed the Caen Burn off Cnoc na Maoile some years back and remember stopping by this cairn for a moment, not really knowing what I was looking at, just that it looked very interesting. Looking at this photo now makes me realise how much the way I walk has changed over recent years. Mainly due to TMA, I seem to see more in one mile now than I used to do in ten. I love this website for that. Thanks for giving me the chance to see what I missed at this site. I need to go back :) |

| How long ago was this? Wondering if the lower slopes were wooded? |

| No trees when I was there and looking at a few old OS maps (1950s & 1870s) they don't show any trees on the slopes round Caen Burn. |

| Wonder where that moss came from on the wonderful southern monument, then? Very odd. |

| Bracken? Looks a lot of moss though. |

Looks like quite a bit of heather burn round the cairn sometime between 2009 and 2011 when you scroll through the timeline. http://tinyurl.com/pqzjtju |
