Description
Morphology
The entrance is quite unstable since there is a lot of clay, it opens at the bottom of a 3 metres deep funnel where a narrow passage places us at the head of a shaft of -8 metres whose base, on a slope, leads us to the last vertical drop of about 2 metres.
Other details
During the visit made by members of the Espeleodijous after storm Glòria (January 2020), they had the feeling that the depth of the pit has been reduced by the accumulation of clay and grasses dragged to the bottom of the cavity.
History
The first exploration was carried out by the GIE of the CE Gràcia in 1971.
