Description
Morphology
Through a large entrance (approximately 7 x 3 metres) heavily covered by vegetation one enters a 9-metre shaft. Its floor, on a slope, is covered by boulders and at the lowest point, through a crawlway, one can reach a tall, narrow chimney.
History
Cavity discovered by chance by Miquel Vigorós and Xavier Arús (EG Santfeliuenc) in 1993. It is not known whether people in the area knew of it and what name it might have had.
It is suspected that it may be the same cavity that two members of the ERE – CEC explored on 21-12-1969 and that they named Avenc de Santa Susanna but without giving any data.
