Descrizione

Morfologia

Small pit 8 m deep. The point of maximum depth is at elevation -8.5.

Concrezioni

A ramp of blocks climbs up with a flowstone.

Progressione

Access is by a small 4 metre pit which, at its base, can be followed on one side to a chaos of blocks that plugs the gallery and, on the other, a slope full of stones leads to the point of maximum depth (elevation -8.5). From here the cavity rises a little by a ramp of blocks that then climbs up with a flowstone. Through a small hole it is still possible to continue about 6 metres more until it is closed.

Storia

The first news we have of this cavity is given by N. Llopis Lladó (CMB), who explored and surveyed it around 1934. The survey remained unpublished until it was published in the Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya. Vol. 7 (1984).

In May 1976 it was visited by members of the ERE-CEC.
