Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance is 0.50x0.40 metres and opens in the middle of a limestone pavement; it gives access to a 23.50-metre pit. After a few drops one reaches -27.50 metres, where we find two chimneys with no further continuation.

Storia

The cavity was located by Jaume, en Met de Can Nou de Bassegoda, in 1989, on observing that humid air was coming out of a small hole. He later cleared it. Around 1991, en David Campo and other colleagues from the SIRE-UEC Barcelona finished clearing the access and explored it.
