A spacious, aesthetic porch overlooking a human-sized gallery that ends at a first short, very narrow sump, then continues beyond S1 into a drowned fault system forming an S2.
Description
Morphology
The porch is fairly large and aesthetic. The gallery is human-sized.
Hydrology
The gallery ends at a first sump, short (8 m / -1 m) but extremely narrow. Beyond S1, the gallery continues along a fault system; 40 metres further on, this fault system is drowned and forms an S2. In the S2, the faults are passable, but the route to the exit has not been found.
Progression
With diving equipment, take care. A good morale and a good dose of patience are needed to pass the first sump. Explorations in progress (2009).
