A tiny pit barely 3 m deep in the Morella area (Garraf), formed by the coalescence of two small vertical tubes in a stripped covered karst.

Characteristics

Location

From the Pla de Querol car park, follow the route to the Campgràs and continue along the road that climbs to the Centre d'Emissors d'Aviació, going as far as the installation located furthest E. To the N of this is spot height 586 (Serrat de la Morella), to the SW is the central radioelectric installation (Puig Ginebró), and between the two points there is a small col where, on its SE slope, there is a doline. Shortly before reaching the entrance to the radioelectric installation, leave the track and about 30 metres in the direction of the col is the SM-11 pit in a clearly visible horizontal stratum, and a few metres further E we will find the SM-12.
