Description

Morphology

The entrance, 3 metres wide by 1.5 metres high, divides into two; the right-hand one is the more accessible, also because of the brambles and scrub that hinder entry.

Through a narrow passage of 0.8×0.8 metres we reach a low-roofed gallery (0.6 m).

Following this gallery to the right we ascend 1 m and, overcoming a 0.4 m step up, there is a small terminal chamber of tiny dimensions (2×0.7 m).

Progression

Through a narrow passage of 0.8×0.8 metres we reach a low-roofed gallery (0.6 m); following this gallery to the right we ascend 1 m and, overcoming a 0.4 m step up, there is a small terminal chamber of tiny dimensions (2×0.7 m).

If we go to the left we will come out through the lower entrance located three metres further on.

History

The only known data on this cavity come from the exploration carried out on 1-03-2009 by the Grup d'Espeleologia de Badalona.
