Description
Morphology
The original entrance must have been larger, but it appears half filled by earth falls from the upper part of the crag; even so, it gives access to a long gallery, 18 m long and about 8 m wide. In the middle of the gallery, on the left side, we find the access to a crawlway parallel to the main gallery about 7 m long that ends in a very narrow passage.
Speleothems
On the ceiling of the main gallery there are some small active stalactites that have a curious lateral displacement, although no air current is observed.
History
Unpublished cavity discovered by David Tomàs in the winter of 2021-22 thanks to the clearing of vegetation caused by the rainstorm of September 2021.
In February 2024 Agustí Barceló and Francesc Rubinat visited the cavity to collect data and survey the cavity.
