A 30 m deep pit in the Montsant (Ulldemolins), with three openings, explored by the GELL around 1996.

Caratteristiche

Località

It is located in the Montsant, in Ulldemolins, in the same sector as the Avencs 1-2 i 3 de les Planes del Forn del Vidre. You must descend through the forest practically to the cliff-bound limits of the ravine on the right-hand side; a collapse indicates the presence of the cavity. Approximate coordinates without much reliability.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The pit has three openings to the outside; the most obvious is the upper one. At the base of the small shaft an ascending ramp follows that connects through a narrow passage with the upper mouth. Continuing down over some uncomfortable blocks, one reaches the lower mouth. Shortly before, the cavity gains depth through a stony ramp that ends at a narrow and elongated drop of -6 metres. The gallery becomes impassable on one side. On the other side we soon reach a gaping passage; by skirting it one reaches an earthy chamber with a drop of -6 metres where the exploration ends.

Progressione

It is easier to enter through the middle mouth after installing a 5 metre small shaft.

Altri dettagli

The gallery becomes impassable on one side, which is where the icy air current emerges that gives one of the names of the pit.

Storia
