Small 9 m deep pit in the Fondo de la Pleta (Garraf), discovered and explored by SES – CE Puigmal (Barcelona) in 1969 and rediscovered in 2011 by SES – CE Ribes.

Caratteristiche

Località

From the Pleta we must head for the head of the Fondo de la Pleta and go down to find the Avenc de la Pleta, a little further down the Avenc Morgan i Comas and further on the Avenc de la Pela. We will follow the torrent bed until almost reaching the confluence with the Fondo de les Coves, about 5 metres before finding a small step; we must climb a couple of metres up the left slope to find the mouth of the pit.

Descrizione

Morfologia

A narrow, sloping mouth 0.60 x 0.30 metres leads us to the 6.25 metre shaft that takes us to the bottom of the pit. At the base of the shaft two very narrow passages lead off, one to the NE and the other to the SW. The second has its floor raised about 60 centimetres above the base of the shaft.

Concrezioni

At level -3 we find a small, heavily decorated chamber, in the ceiling of which there is a small impenetrable hole that connects with the outside.

Progressione

The NE passage gives access to a small chamber. The SW passage leads us to a climb where, by “ramonage”, 8.10 metres can be ascended to reach a closed dome.

Storia

Cavity discovered and explored by members of SES – CE Puigmal (Barcelona) in 1969. Practically forgotten for years, it was located again in 2011 by members of SES – CE Ribes, who found the mouth obstructed, opening it and producing a new survey.
