Storia
Certainly known since remote times. Its little importance has left it unpublished until the visit of members of the GE Badalona on 6-4-2019 when they carry out the cataloguing work. Given the lack of knowledge of the name by which it is known, they decide to call it Balma de Vergerars, although in some hiking notes it is mentioned as balma or cova del Gronxador.
(Note from Espeleoindex): Joan Virella, in his collection of cavities of archaeological interest published in Miscel·lània Penedesenca no. 1 (1978) cites in the municipality of Salomó the following cavity: Cova Gran (rock shelter near Cova Fonda). Without specifying any further data. We think it could be the same cavity.
