Description
Morphology
The fissure presents two entrances. One is formed by a crack 10 metres long and 1.5 metres wide; the depth does not exceed 6 metres. The other entrance is more impressive, 9 metres long and 3 wide. Once fully inside the cavity, a chamber 3 metres and sometimes up to 5 metres high leads towards a passage narrower in width, but of good ceiling size; the descending floor leads to the bottom of the cavity, all filled with rubble.
Progression
The first entrance can be accessed from the North side by a ramp of stones with some short step, or from the South by scrambling down between blocks of wedged stones that lead to a small chamber which in turn directs through a step to the bottom of the cavity. At the other entrance, a steep ramp accessed by a small step.
History
Like the pou de la Carbonera, it was discovered and explored by members of the SIS del CE Terrassa in September 1989, during one of the numerous searches of the pous de Torrent Fondo.
