A 14 m deep pit in Montblanc, with a 0.4x2 m entrance, a narrow passage, a shaft, a ramp and an impenetrable fissure.

Characteristics

Location

From Montblanc along Avinguda Manel Ribé we cross the barranc de la Pasquala following the track to the Coll de la Coma, where there is a fork with a square pool; we follow the track on the right for about 800 metres to a right-hand bend where there is a building and from which a path descends to the Font de la Ginesta. Along this path we find a fissure that must be jumped; a few metres further on we find the Avenc de la Figuera; about 100 metres on we find a fork; heading to the right, a few metres to the right is the entrance of the Avenc dels Tres Cantons.

Description

Morphology

Pit 14 m deep. An entrance of 0.4x2 m gives access to a narrow passage that immediately leads into a narrow shaft; in its first metre there is a wedged block that does not obstruct progress, followed by a smooth inclined ramp that leaves us at the base of the fissure, which over a short distance becomes impenetrable.

Progression

History

Known to Ramon Palau since childhood. At present the small dimensions of the entrance forced us to carry out clearance work.
