Descrizione

Morfologia

The seventy-centimetre-diameter entrance opens at ground level. Small steps lead down to -6 at Un P 4. The descending diaclase that follows, oriented SW, is obstructed by large blocks in the ceiling that require crawling. A four-metre step, entirely widened with explosives, opens at the top of Un P 35 completely occupied by an accumulation of wedged rocks. After a few metres the blocks give way to a fissure twenty metres long. The width of 80 cm at the start gradually narrows to reach thirty centimetres at the base of the shaft. Two blocks wedged six metres from the bottom allow the rope to be freed (width = 40 cm). The ceiling consists of a sometimes impressive scree cone that prevents appreciation of the real height of the fissure. The bottom of the fissure is very narrow and is only estimated.

Progressione

The only descent passage is directly below the step. Reaching the bottom of the shaft, one can follow the bottom of the fissure to an inexorable narrowing that marks the low point of the Aven at -59. Progressing horizontally towards the SW one reaches the edge of the fissure. An ascent of several metres leads into a chimney clogged with blocks at -32. On the opposite side (NE), crossing the shaft horizontally, one progresses about twenty additional metres in the fissure to a constriction at -44.
