Description

Morphology

In a large doline overrun by vegetation and of a morphology identical to the Avenc de la Morella. At the bottom of the doline the two entrances of the cavity open.

Progression

A ramp leads into a short descending gallery, at the end of which one must climb 1 metre to descend a R.2.5 immediately followed by a R.2. The pit continues as a ramp, increasingly vertical until it ends blocked by boulders.

History

Located and explored by members of the GES – CMB in January 1957. The record card and survey were not made until 1973, also by members of the GES – CMB.

In 2012, members of the SES – CE Ribes cleared the narrow passage where the cavity ended and were able to go about 6 metres deeper. This exploration remained anonymous until April 2015, when it was visited by members of the Espeleo Club de Gràcia, who updated the data and made a new survey.
