Caratteristiche

Località

Located at the coll de Ciuret, the eastern boundary between the municipalities of Vidrà and la Vall d'en Bas. We will head S, in the direction of Puig Cubell; this must be climbed by flanking it towards the SSW, up to an elevation of approximately 1400 metres, where the small entrance of this cavity opens in the very middle of the cliff. Approximate coordinates and location without much precision.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The small entrance hole gives way to a gallery on a slope of about 18 metres in length. At the final part of this gallery a gap opens that gives way to a second chamber of the cavity, with characteristics similar to the upper one, also descending, although it has a lower ceiling and presents some unimportant branches.

Storia

Explored by members of the ACE Mataró in 1968, who explored it and made the only survey we know of. We update the record (March 2016) adding that very possibly the first exploration was carried out by Joan Senent (ERE – CEC) and a friend on 19 March 1963, naming the cavity Avenc del Purgatori, calculating a depth of 20 metres.
