Description

Morphology

A small entrance puts us in communication with a 7 metre shaft and with the base made uneven by blocks. At the W. end there is a narrow fissure (which was not passed) and through which a neighbouring small chamber can be seen that does not appear to have any continuation.

History

Discovered and explored for the first time by D. Schibi and F. Monsonís (ERE-CEC) at Easter 1970. (Information provided by Pere Cantons).
