Description

Morphology

A 50 X 70 centimeter entrance opens onto two small steps preceding an inclined plane forming a 90° bend.
This brings us to a narrow, cleared vertical passage that opens onto a 26-meter pit.
During the descent at -24m, a wide crawlway opens up, in which a cleared vertical fissure leads to a small pit with no continuation.
The floor at -36m is formed of a clogging.
