A cavity with a double porch and a fork, with descending galleries, a passage opened with explosives and massive concretions.
Description
Morphology
Double porch lower down (3 x 1 m wide respectively) separated by a rock pillar. A stony descent 5 m long in a gallery 2 m wide, beneath a vault with a sinuosity of curious perfection. Fork. To the left, toward the North, a gallery 6 m long, descending over scree, 2 to 3 m wide, 3 m high, ending in a cover 1.50 m high by 0.80 wide, exactly like an ogival door. Beyond, the gallery rises over 3 m (above, a chimney blocked at 5 or 6 m by a large block that seems wedged by a miracle) then descends again over 4 m to three large blocks between which opens an orifice 0.50 m in diameter. A 3 m drop and a passage 1 m high by 1 m wide, which narrows, lowers and becomes impassable after 6 m. At the fork, to the right, toward S6E, a corridor first descending then rising, 7 m long, with large concretion masses.
Progression
Access to the passage was opened with explosives.
