Cavity with a fine porch, with a first pit, a P15 and a P40 both choked at the bottom.
Description
Morphology
The cavity opens through a fine porch visible from afar. a first pit leads onto a scree slope at 10 metres. a very short dig revealed the continuation, a short gallery dug along a fault that leads a few metres further to the top of a P15, choked at the bottom (-25 m).
Progression
By traversing with an easy opposition at the top of the P15, one reaches the top of a new vertical, a fine P40, unfortunately also choked at the bottom (-50 m).
