Description

Morphology

It is a cave with a gallery running in a NE direction, where the ceiling gradually decreases in height until, after about 10 metres, it becomes obstructed. On the left-hand side there is another gallery running in a NW direction, this one with a rather small cross-section; a few metres further on it gains width but with decreasing height, until the gallery becomes impassable.

History

Explored on 23 February 1979 by Daniel Gutierrez and Mª Angels Gabriel of the GE Badalona.
