Description

Morphology

It consists of two galleries that join while crossing the punta des Colomer. The mouth of the E gallery turns suddenly to the left until reaching a wide roofless chamber. The W mouth, narrower than the previous one, leads to a practically submerged gallery 12 metres long that ends at the same chamber. From the chamber, the cavity continues among a large chaos of blocks.

History

The only reports we have are those published by members of the SIS – CE Terrassa who explored and surveyed it in October 1980.
