Caratteristiche

Località

Follow the track that from the coll d'Ares passes by the astronomical observatory (this stretch is asphalted) and the Grallera de Corona, located to the left of the track and right next to it. From the latter we will follow the track for about 1700 metres (ETRS89 coordinates: X: 309794; Y: 4658574). From this point we will head along the left side of the track in a southerly direction for 193 metres. The cavity is found at the edge of a small cliff. The clearly visible entrance is located 20 metres to the West of the avenc de la Gavarrera and a few metres below it.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance presents us with a series of short verticals that take us to the bottom of the fissure, where we continue descending by means of a ramp until it stabilises. The fissure descends by a new vertical until reaching the point of maximum depth of the cavity. The gallery at this point is considerably wider, taking an ascending direction until it ends choked under some large blocks. Further on there is a flat stretch of short length and a ledge with two small continuations. Above and also between blocks we manage to ascend until reaching a point where the presence of roots indicates proximity to the exterior.

Progressione

To continue we will advance in opposition before descending the last vertical and climbing 8 metres to find the continuation. Between blocks and seeking a narrow passage that places us above the previous climb, the gallery leads us to a new vertical that we will descend by its widest part, until linking a few metres from the floor with a new drop that will leave us definitively at the bottom of the fissure. A few metres before, however, we will have to overcome these blocks, seeking the upper parts; a delicate passage between blocks must be passed. Immediately we see a new drop that after an ascending ramp places us in a flat stretch of short length, which obliges us to make a new climb in order to access a ledge with two small continuations. Below, after overcoming a narrow passage and a small drop, we advance between blocks until all the continuations are choked.

Storia

Discovered from the information provided by J.R. Segura while he was making the Guia Excursionista del Montsec d'Ares, members of the Grup Espeleològic de Lleida explore it on 6 April 2008.
