Description
Morphology
The entrance is in reality the start of the torrent, which opens amid earth and tree roots, giving way to a small, narrow and elongated 4-metre drop, then after a short narrow passage into a small chamber of rounded structure; at the opposite end, a narrow laminator brings this small cavity to an end.
Hydrology
During a sudden rise caused by the abundant rains of November 1987, a significant quantity of gravel and sand accumulated in the final part of the cavity; likewise the force of the water dragged through the entrance pit and the exterior torrent all the digging material that was inside, as well as the blocks and earth extracted from the interior and that had been deposited at the mouth of the cavity.
History
Discovered on 13 September 1987, several visits were necessary in order to dig it out, being finally abandoned due to the accumulation of sediments in its final part.
