Three entrances (C94a, C94b, C94c) of the same pit network, the largest of which descends to 25 m beneath a snowfield.
Description
Morphology
The largest shaft (C94a) allows a descent to a depth of 25 m. Around -15 m, the shaft spirals and widens. C94b opens onto the same fissure toward the southeast. C94c opens a few metres west of C94a; a fissure there allows a descent to -3 m.
Progression
In C94a, one lands on a snowfield at around -5 m; one must squeeze between snow and wall. Finally the snowfield chokes the shaft at 25 m. To be revisited after a long period of snow melt. Slight inward draught. In C94b, a downclimb allows one to land at -3 m on a snowfield; the cavity appears choked around -7 m but the last drop has not been descended. In C94c, stop at a constriction allowing a view down to around -6 m.
