Description
Morphology
The narrow entrance passage leads to the dome of an elongated chamber which descends at both its ends, reaching its maximum depth at -9 metres.
Progression
Due to the extreme narrowness of the cavity, it has only been explored once; as no surveying equipment was available, only a sketch was made.
History
The first records of visits to one of the cavities located inside this great fissure correspond to Dr. Francesc Español, carried out in 1934 for biospeleological purposes.
In 1965 the Grup Espeleològic Terra i Mar (GETIM) of Sabadell explored the avenc dels Tigres (pit of the Tigres); the avenc del TIM (pit of the TIM), the avenc Besora (pit of Besora) and the avenc del Vent (pit of the Vent).
Later the ERE of the CEC between the years 1977 and 1980 carried out a meticulous inventory of the cavities located in this fissure which would be published in the magazine Espeleòleg no. 34-35.
During 1979 the Centre Espeleològic Cervelló carried out the exploration of various cavities of this fissure, with the aim that they be published in the Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya (Borràs-Miñarro-Talavera); this led to giving a new denomination to some cavities.
We, the EspeleoÍndex team, have considered it more appropriate to use the denomination of the cavities made by the members of the ERE-CEC, since it is a more complete joint work. This same line regarding denomination has been used by Jordi de Valles in the Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya (4).
