The entrance of the Buco di Topo Aureliano is located in a small channel near Deneb. The elevation (2355) and the position place it in an interesting balance between the two known collectors of the area: the Piedi Umidi and the Reseaux.

Description

Morphology

Scaling down the first enthusiastic depth estimates, the new pit has shortened to about 25 m and leads into a winding meander; beyond an essential dig, the mirage of a spacious environment can be glimpsed.

Progression

The première was the work of Paoletta, Enrico and Lorenzo "Z".

Other details

Now it seems that the Buco di Topo Aureliano already has its entrance, and this thanks to Paoletta, who found it in a small channel near Deneb. It is worth persisting.
