Description

Morphology

Cavity opened up by the construction of the road. The entrance is 0.90X0.50 metres and leads to a 1 metre drop, which places us in a small chamber of 2X2 metres, with a height of 1.50 metres. Below the entrance drop there is a small passage of 1.50 metres in length with no continuation. At this point a depth of -2 metres is reached.

History

Cavity opened up during the construction works of the new variant of the N-340 road as it passes through coll de l'Ordal; these works took place between the end of the last century and the beginning of the 21st century. The first exploration of which there are references was carried out in 2009 by the GE Badalona.
