A cleared entrance leads to Un ressaut (a short drop), a small narrow gallery and a piece of wide, low gallery blocked by a large debris cone.
Description
Morphology
A cleared entrance (2 m x 1 m) opens onto Un court ressaut (a short drop). In its middle, one reaches a small narrow gallery ending in Un soutirage (a crawl). At the bottom, one emerges into Un morceau de galerie large et basse (a piece of wide, low gallery) ending at a large debris cone. A small narrow, sloping passage on the side allows one to gain a few metres.
Other details
It would appear to be Un tronçon d'ancienne galerie (a section of old gallery) unfortunately blocked by a large debris cone that could be due to the olive tree growing above it. The digging appears dangerous.
