Small cave with a 9-metre passage in the torrent that descends from Puig Terrers (Gisclareny).

Characteristics

Location

From the Cap de Sadorn, we will continue upstream along the torrent bed in the direction of Puig Terrers. Almost at the highest part and in the middle of the torrent bed there is a large wedged block. The cavity is located a few metres above this and on the hydrographic left bank. Approximate coordinates without much precision.

Description

Morphology

A jointed opening gives access to a descending and strongly eroded meander. After a few metres of passage it changes direction, at the same time as the meander becomes narrower until it becomes impenetrable. However, on the other side of the narrow passage it seems to continue with wider dimensions.

History

Located and explored in August 1992 by the SIES of Esplugues de Llobregat.

By mistake the SIES published this cavity in the 1992 report under the name PT-2; in the 1993 report they rectified it.
