Description

Morphology

The entrance, not very wide, opens in the wall of a fine doline and leads to two drops of 2 and 6 metres. At the bottom, the cave splits in two: on one side, the start of a well-rounded shaft is quickly blocked by mud and pebbles; on the other, a fissure from which a good draught emerges appears to plunge.

Progression

The digging out of the fissure dislodged an enormous blade, which nevertheless looked like a wall, thus interrupting the work.
