Caratteristiche

Località

From the Campgràs doline, we will head towards the Benjamí Digón pit; from there we will continue east passing by the Anna Svacbroc pit, quite visible due to a large cairn painted with blue stripes (data from 2009). Next we will go in a south-east direction until we position ourselves at the beginning of the slope, from where we will make out a small hill at the end of the incline in the direction of the fondo de Vallbona. Before reaching the small hill there is a col; the cavity is located 175 metres before reaching the col and 24 metres north-west of the avenc de l'Arboç.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The one-metre-diameter entrance gives access to an 8-metre-deep shaft that maintains the width with respect to the entrance.

Storia

Following the discovery by the GES of the CMB in 1986 of some human bone remains in the nearby avenc de l'Arboç, without knowing by which point they had accessed the interior, the surroundings were inspected, finding a suspicious pile of blocks. Once these were removed and the interior of the conduit where the bone remains of another person appeared was emptied of earth and stones, the space that remained is the current “avenc dels morts”.
