Description
Morphology
The cavity is developed in conglomerates. The entrance is 2.5 m high by 1.5 m wide and gives access to a gallery 16 m long that gradually narrows until it becomes a crawlway 1.3 m high by 80 cm wide. At 6 m from the start of the gallery we find a widening, where a 8.5 m crawlway crosses this gallery, becoming impassable due to its narrowness. In total the cave has a route of 25 m.
History
The cavity was speleologically undocumented until it was located and catalogued by members of the Grup d'Espeleologia de Badalona in July 2020.
