Caratteristiche

Località

The cavity opens through a very large 140 x 22 entrance, behind the dolomitic bar at whose foot one parks. It is shown on the IGN map with the mention “Aven” or “Gouffre” depending on the map. The classic approach is from the north, following the rocky bar for about thirty metres and then crossing it; on the N/S-oriented slope, one passes an old car wreck and heads south.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The cavity opens through a very large 140 x 22 entrance. The entrance slope has narrowing walls from -10 and continues with several steps, including a P 12 and a P 37 that is relatively narrow at its top. One lands on a scree slope around -70. To the south, two steps of 15 and 7 metres lead to the -109 level. The unappealing end is formed by a squeeze that was dug out at the foot of the last step, opening onto a very narrow 8 m shaft that ends at -113.

Idrologia

The zone at -109 is sometimes crossed by a small stream.

Progressione

The rigging starts on the left wall (east side), after passing a pretty little rock arch topped by a magnificent tree (west side). At the bottom of the scree and on the N side, a gallery of about fifty metres leads to -86. The cavity ends at -113 (terminus, work in progress).

Altri dettagli

The cavity is very cold in winter and all the way to the bottom: remember to wrap up if it is freezing outside (it freezes inside too)!
