Description
Morphology
The mouth presents multiple openings between blocks. The cavity has a main hall and reaches a depth of 23 m.
Progression
Amid a marfull we gain a 7 metre rise that places us in the main hall of the cavity. We continue descending rapidly between blocks down to -20 metres, the continuation remaining closed between blocks. Situated again in the hall, a new rise is clearly observed that can be scrambled down calmly and by which a short gallery continues, then taking a network of cracks, of modest sections through which we zigzag; overcoming blocks we can reach the lowest point of the cavity at -23 metres depth.
History
Explored by the GELL around 1997.
