Description

Morphology

The entrance, of reduced dimensions, gives way to a single shaft of elongated form, structural on a joint of E – W orientation, and which reaches a maximum depth of 8 metres.

History

We do not know with certainty who made the first exploration, but it is possibly due to members of the SES – Puigmal (Barcelona) during the 1958-1960 campaigns.
