Description
Morphology
The entrance, 3 x 2.5 metres, gives way to a 5.5 metre shaft that opens in the form of a bell; its descending ramp floor is 6 metres long and 3 wide. At the lower end we can observe a step preceded by a short gallery full of debris and mud. Structured on a N25E – S25O joint, used as a small sinkhole. The floor is formed by a cone of debris covered with plant detritus.
Hydrology
Thanks to the easy decomposition of the materials, water has excavated the joint. Through the short gallery full of debris and mud, water filters in times of rain.
History
Known for many years by the hunters who frequented that spot, but it was not until early 1980 that its exploration was carried out by members of the SIS del CE Terrassa.
