Description
Morphology
Through a small entrance one can descend a subvertical drop of about 2 m, and here the passage continues vertically, very narrow, and according to what had been painted at the entrance many years ago it would reach about 7 m deep.
Progression
Through a small entrance one can descend a subvertical drop of about 2 m, and here the passage continues vertically, very narrow, and according to what had been painted at the entrance many years ago it would reach about 7 m deep. No survey is available.
History
We do not know who made the first exploration or in what year. The only reference we have is that given by members of the SIE-CEA who in March 1986 observed some white paint marks and, following them, located the three cavities, all of them very close together. Their name was painted at one of the entrances.
