Description
Morphology
A small shaft about 4 metres deep, very often flooded. At some times it can be found dry, but at the bottom of the shaft there is a very narrow and normally flooded crawlway. It is known that this passage was once passed, giving access to a narrow gallery about 15 metres long which leads to a blind shaft, followed by a very narrow fissure.
History
Known in the area since time immemorial. The first speleological report is a note that appeared in 1965 in Geo y Bio Karst and was made by members of EDES – CECB (Manresa). In 1980 a group from Castellbell i el Vilar made known in a newly launched local publication named El Brogit a detailed description of the explorations carried out, which reached a point that has never been accessible again. Around 1989 members of the EC de Gràcia became interested in this small phenomenon and made a detailed study of its functioning and evolution.
