Description
Morphology
A funnel-shaped depression full of leaf litter leads to the mouth of the pit, formed by a single ramp gallery just over 10 metres long and 5 metres of vertical drop. The width increases from 1.5 metres at the start to 4 metres at the bottom of the cavity; the ceiling remains constant at one metre high, except in the final section where it rises slightly. At the eastern end of the bottom, the beginning of a gallery choked by sediments that make penetration impossible can be seen.
History
Its existence was known through Mr. Blai Fierra, who informed Jaume Claverí and Joan Boixader (GES-CMT), who explored it in October 1989. A few days later they accompanied members of the SIS – CET while surveying the cavity.
