Description
Morphology
Cavity 30 metres deep and 48 metres of passage.
Progression
Entering through the mouth closest to the crag, one reaches practically the very middle of the main gallery; towards the W, and by a descending ramp between blocks, one arrives at the balcony hanging over the riera de Beget. In the opposite direction, the gallery rises, passing beneath another mouth, and a few metres further on the gallery is closed at the foot of a chimney, which also communicates with the outside.
History
The first exploration of which we have record was carried out in 1973 by the GE Olot.
