Description

Morphology

A horizontal-type entrance mouth that leads to an 8-metre-deep shaft. At the base, a ramp begins that takes us to the end of the cavity at -15 metres depth. From the base of the shaft, there is another gallery in the opposite direction that ends blocked by boulders.

History

This group of crevices was known to the woodcutters; a shepherd from the area pointed them out to the members of the GIS de Girona, who explored them during Holy Week of 1972.

These cavities were named by their explorers with the initials 0-0-L A-11.
