Looks like the skull of a baby and the bone of an adult. This cave may have been filled during one of the small pox epidemics.

This site is not on Quatsino Sound.
A lot of these sites have been looted.
Some of the caves were used a the final resting place. This is a cedar bent wood box.
This is a screen shot of my travels. Ignore the "Man Overboard." That's where I caught the salmon and I pushed the wrong buttons to mark the spot. The GPS readings are for Winter Harbor.
Driving back from Port Alice to Port McNeil, I went off the highway 6 km to Alice Lake. I launched and rinsed off.
Quatsino Narrows. Once through, I decided to stay until the next slack, which gave me some time to kill. So I toured the inner Sound.

This is where the highway to Port Alice crosses the Marble River. Years ago I kayaked down the river and then paddled to Coal Harbor to run the shuttle. Lots of caves along the river, some showing signs of human habitation.
