Description

Morphology

A rascler cavity formed by a shaft of just over 3 metres of depth and quite narrow, formed in covered karst conditions.

History

Unblocked 10 or 15 years ago by members of the EGUME (Gavà), marking it as EGUME – 1. A short distance away there is a “project” of a pit half unblocked that they marked as EGUME – 2. Currently (2013) no paint mark is preserved.
