Location

Coming from Campgràs along the track heading towards la Morella, about 300 metres before the summit (elevation 540) you must follow a well-marked path on the right that leads towards coll Sostrell (or Sustrell). Once you have crossed two small streams and when the path begins to descend you must leave it. A little higher up, about thirty metres away, is the entrance of the pit (the debris extracted from the digging out can still be seen). From avenc Carles Selicke, avenc de la Loli is about 40 metres to the S42E.

Description

Morphology

Entrance and small shaft of rather ungenerous dimensions. A 5-metre vertical that widens at 2 metres.

Speleothems

At the bottom an important task of emptying the shaft was carried out, a metre and a half of decalcification clay and remains of broken speleothems.

History

Lluís Muntan located it in March 1999, later learning that the first exploration and digging out had been carried out, a short time before, by members of SIRE – UEC el Prat de Llobregat.
