Location

In the highest part of the head of the torrent where the Avenc del Racó d'en Juny is found.

The coordinates we give (as required by the computer program) are completely random over the area where the cavity should approximately be found, due to the lack of precision regarding its location.

Description

Morphology

It consists of a single small chamber, which is accessed through a small vertical shaft. The entrance is practically circular and the bottom of the cavity has a slight downward direction towards the W.

History

As recorded in unpublished files in the archive of GES – CMB, around the year 1934, N. Llopis Lladó explored different cavities in the area and one of them has the same characteristics, naming it Avenc petit del Racó de Reboig and there is no doubt it is the same one that members of ERE – CEC explored on 30 May 1976.
