Description

Morphology

At the back of the entrance shelter an ascending, narrow passage begins that becomes impassable within a few metres. This fissure, although it cannot be passed through, connects with the entrance hall of the Tuta Gran.

History

Cited by J. Closas (1935) as a shelter near the Tuta Gran. In the survey by the ERE – CEC (1968) it already appears as the Tuta Petita.

Around 1976, during speleoarchaeological activities carried out by members of the GG Gràcia and GE Badalona, they made a survey of this small cavity.
