Description
Morphology
An upper gallery, very steep, reaches a small chamber 7 by 3 metres in which opens a stepped shaft that reaches the point of maximum depth.
History
Cavity that had remained unpublished until the exploration by members of the SIE – CEA who explore, name and survey it during an outing at the Bora Tuna on 24 June 1973. It is published for the first time in the Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya (1980) although with erroneous location data.
Rediscovered by members of the Grup d'Espeleologia de Badalona in March 2011 and which, according to what our colleague Enric Porcel tells us, in Llorà is a hole they know by the name of ca Deu (although there is no house of this name), he also tells us that some call it Avenc de Bora Tuna.
