Descrizione
Morfologia
The mouth, 0.8 x 1.2 m, gives way to a ramp over a block that, in an easterly direction, leads to a small chamber 2.5 x 3.5 m. From here, descending two small steps, a sloping gallery continues, also in an easterly direction, 0.8 m wide and almost 2 m high, until reaching a flat bottom. The total route is 10 metres with a depth of -4 m.

Storia
The cavity was explored for the first time on the afternoon of 2 May 1982, after an exhaustive prospection of Puig Ventós, by Xavier Badiella, Ferran Aguirre and Miquel Àngel Martínez, all of them members of the SIS del CE de Terrassa. Later they reported it to Jaume Morera, a member of the Centre Muntanyenc i de Recerques Olesà and very knowledgeable about that area. He indicated to them the name of the cavity: Cova de Can Colesa. Immediately afterwards, Jaume Morera's team carried out archaeological excavations there and, when these ended, the cavity was forgotten. Twenty years later it was cited in the Inventari Espeleològic de Catalunya (Miñarro, 2002), practically without data and with erroneous bibliography.
Subsequently, Joan Soler, from Olesa de Montserrat, pointed out (Google Maps) a pit at Puig Ventós, but it has been verified that it is the same cavity.
