Descrizione
Morfologia
The entrance of the cavity is complex, as it is subdivided by large wedged blocks, offering a chaotic appearance. Although it gives way to a vertical drop, we can avoid the use of ropes by accessing through an entrance located on the south side, which will place us in the main gallery after descending an easy step.
The most important part of the pit is structured along a joint inclined about 70 degrees. This is descending, and at its lowest point there is a small perpendicular fissure where the vertical of a narrow little shaft opens, allowing us to descend 5 m more until reaching elevation -18 m.
Concrezioni
No notable speleothem formation can be seen.
Storia
The cavity is marked on the ICGC map but it is placed in the wrong location, considerably further south than where it actually is. The Editorial Alpina map (“Catllaràs-Picancel”) places it in the correct location.
Despite this, and although it is known to some hikers, the cavity has gone unnoticed by speleologists, not appearing in any speleological catalogue. Members of the GEB and the ECMB decided to go and look for it, and they located it after a short prospection of the area.
Although the cavity is known by the name “Avenc del Puig Cubell”, the explorers thought it appropriate to extend the name to “Avenc del Puig Cubell de Vilada” in order to avoid possible confusion with another cavity that is also called “Avenc del Puig Cubell” and which is located in the municipality of Vidrà (Osona)
