Caratteristiche

Località

A few metres before reaching the Corral Nou (road from the Plana Novella to Olivella), a path branches off to the left that runs alongside the riera de Jafre. Right at the first meander to the left, one must descend into the riera and climb up the opposite slope, where the two entrances of the pit are already visible.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The upper entrance (3 x 2 m) leads into a bell-shaped shaft of 16 metres. At the N end of the base of the shaft is the narrow entrance of a small shaft that leads to the point of maximum depth (elevation -18).

Progressione

At 6 metres above the base of the shaft is the artificial gallery which, with a length of 7 metres, leads to the outside and constitutes the second access entrance to the cavity. Descending via the new one and at the level of the artificial gallery, at its opposite end, there is a ledge that via the rear part gives access to a steep ramp and a 2 metre drop that leads to a new shaft of about 4 metres. Halfway down and in the SE wall there is a narrow horizontal passage that connects with the entrance shaft.

Storia

The first record of this cavity is that given by members of the SES of the Club Esquí Puigmal (Barcelona) who explored it in 1958.
