Description
Morphology
It is a cavity structured along a NW - SE trending joint. At the entrance, a small step places us in a passage which at 6 metres allows us to return via a lower level to the entrance pit at -7 m. An 8-metre pit places us at the base, full of debris; climbing a debris cone we find a new 7.5-metre pit. It has a depth of 20 metres (+2/-18).
Progression
To explore it only a safety rope is needed as it is very narrow, and moreover the blocks are quite unstable.
Other details
The cavity was opened by the machine that made the forest track.
History
