Description
Morphology
A first drop of just over one metre places us on a narrow platform that skirts half of the head of a shaft 17 metres deep and about 5 in diameter. At the base, a narrow and short passage ends up choked by stones.
History
Rafael Amat i Carreras, on 19 April 1924, explored the pits of Campgràs and Papellona; that same day he saw the one of Querol but, for lack of time, he did not go down it, leaving it for a later campaign, but he did not return, so the first exploration will be by the GES - CMB in October 1948.
