Description

Morphology

Formed by a single shaft of 12 metres of drop and a short ramp that ends at 14.4 metres of total depth.

History

The only reference we know of is the one corresponding to the exploration that members of the SIE – CEA carried out in September 1983.

It should be said, however, that in 1961 the SES Puigmal (Barcelona) explored a cavity in this same area and named it Avenc dels Quatre Pins, but according to the description it is not the same cavity. It is almost certain that the cavity explored by the Puigmal group is the one catalogued by the SIE as Avenc dels 28.
