Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance shaft of about thirty metres, of fine dimensions, arrives at the top of a large gallery. Towards the south-west, the gallery can be followed for about fifty metres to Un ressaut (a step) that is easily down-climbed. One then arrives in a chamber with a high ceiling whose floor is blocked by concretion. a low passage in Un soutirage (a crawl) leads to a severe squeeze behind which lies another chamber of more modest dimensions.

Back at the base of the entrance shaft, a steeply sloping scree slope heads north-east for a few tens of metres to Un ressaut (a step) of 3 metres. The continuation narrows until the lowest point of the cave, choked with clay. Shortly after the 3-metre step, an upper gallery heads south-east and, after a few metres, ends at Un puits (a shaft) of 7 metres whose floor is choked with clay.

Concrezioni

The floor of the chamber with a high ceiling is blocked by concretion.

Progressione

Towards the south-west, the gallery can be followed for about fifty metres to Un ressaut (a step) that is easily down-climbed. a low passage in Un soutirage (a crawl) leads to a severe squeeze.

Back at the base of the entrance shaft, a steeply sloping scree slope heads north-east for a few tens of metres to Un ressaut (a step) of 3 metres where a rope facilitates passage. Shortly after the 3-metre step, a 5-metre climb (lasso on concretion) allows one to reach an upper gallery heading south-east.
