Description

Morphology

Small pit 5 m deep, with a very earthy start, characteristic of all the cavities in that area. Once 3 vertical metres have been descended, it ends in an impenetrable rock passage.

Progression

On 6 June 2020 the entrance was cleared in order to be able to access the interior and proceed with the exploration. Three weeks later, Xavi Badiella tried to force the passage but only managed to progress a little more than a handspan.

History

At the end of May 2020, Elisa Cardellach, the tenant farmer of Can Garrigosa, told Narcís Serrat that, in the area where they keep the horses, there is a small hole.
