Description
Morphology
The cavity begins with a pit of -4 metres and 1.5 metres in width, continues with a short gallery on a slope that leads to a small chaotic chamber with large blocks cemented in clay in a precarious state of equilibrium. Below one of these blocks a ramp pit 4 metres in length places us in a pit of more respectable dimensions and 7 metres of drop, leading to the middle of a gallery 2 metres in diameter and 12 metres in length. On one side the gallery climbs and becomes impenetrable at 6 metres, on the other side a narrow fissure full of blocks descends to a small chamber with a floor full of gravel and with a narrow fissure that seems to descend about 5 metres more.
History
Explored by GIRES in the “90”s over the course of several campaigns.
