Description
Morphology
It is an E-W trending joint, with a maximum width of one and a half metres. The entrance is divided in two by a wedged block. At -8 metres depth a block divides the pit in two; from -13 metres a descending ramp begins and a small final pit, which reaches -30 metres depth.
History
The first news we have of the exploration of the cavity is that it was carried out in 1968 by members of the SAS de Centre Gimnàstic Barcelonès.
In 1993 it is located again by the ERE del CEC, although these, thinking that it was a new cavity, wrongly name it avenc de Cal Magí, we suppose because this farmhouse is the closest to the cavity. Already in 2015, this name of Cal Magí painted at the entrance had practically disappeared, being totally illegible.
