Description
Morphology
A mouth of 0.80×0.65 metres leads to a shaft 8 metres deep. At 5 metres down, the upper gallery is intercepted. Towards the NE there is a passage 0.40 metres wide by 1.14 metres high; after two metres of descending route there is a shaft with a drop of 1.70 metres that leads to its base. A small gallery 1.50 metres long with a chimney at the back is found towards the E at the same height as the access gallery. Below the access gallery there is a crawlway of 0.40×0.50 metres that in a SW direction connects with the base of the P-8. In the lower gallery, direction W, the width is 0.50 metres; a little further on the height rises and at the top it connects with the upper gallery. If you continue along the lower gallery you pass a small drop and continue for about 2.50 metres, turn right 1 metre more to turn left again where the meander ends at 1 metre distance. On the right a small fissure can be seen.
Speleothems

Progression
A mouth of 0.80×0.65 metres leads to a shaft 8 metres deep. At 5 metres down, the upper gallery is intercepted. If you continue towards the NE through a passage 0.40 metres wide by 1.14 metres high with formations on the ceiling, after two metres of descending route you find a shaft where a drop of 1.70 metres leads to its base. A small gallery 1.50 metres long with a chimney at the back is found towards the E at the same height as the gallery through which you entered. Below the access gallery there is a crawlway of 0.40×0.50 metres that in a SW direction connects with the base of the P-8. In the lower gallery, direction W, you advance a couple of metres, the width is 0.50 metres; a little further on the height rises and at the top it connects with the upper gallery. If you continue along the lower gallery you climb a small drop and continue for about 2.50 metres, turn right 1 metre more to turn left again where the meander ends at 1 metre distance. On the right a small fissure can be seen.
History
After various searches along the riera de Jafre, members of the GE Badalona discovered this small cavity in August 2012, which they had to clear in order to proceed afterwards with its exploration and survey. They named it after the youngest of the group, Nubet García.
