Description

Morphology

Entrance 2 x 1.5 metres. The whole cavity is structured along a very narrow joint with many twists and turns that becomes impassable at -38 metres.

History

Discovered, cleared and explored by the GELL in 1998. The entrance was at first nothing other than a snake's den, hence the name.
