Caratteristiche

Località

Going along the track from the Coll de la Creu to the Coll de Teies, shortly before reaching a fork to the left that leads to Sant Andreu de Lliurona, we find on the right a logging track that we will follow to the end; we will continue along the path and, on reaching the flat area, we will find a large oak tree (1995 data). Towards the NW, about two hundred metres away, we will find the cavity, wooded and difficult to locate. Approximate coordinates.

Altri dettagli

From this narrow passage comes a strong draught of air.

Storia

Cavity located by the GEB in 1995; the first shaft was blocked by boulders until reaching a narrow passage from which a strong draught of air emerged. This circumstance and the sounding of the second shaft suggested that it could be something of interest. After futile attempts to clear the passage, a small compressor was brought, which made it possible to open the passage, just enough for a person to pass through, without it having any continuation.
