Description
Morphology
Once at the wide base, on the S side, we find a collapse filled with blocks, but feasible to clear. On the N side, we find a gallery in a W direction, 6 metres long with an average section of 0.80x0.70 metres.
Speleothems
The gallery on the N side presents some formations.
Progression
It can be accessed by a pit of less than 4 metres equipped with parabolts or, without equipment, by a passage between blocks about 3 metres to the E of the place where the rigging is located.
History
Cavity known since ancient times. Its name is given by its relative proximity to the còrrec de la Carnisseria.
