Descrizione
Morfologia
The entrance is a good size, of vertical configuration. The cave begins with a fine climb of 4 m of vertical drop (IIIº). Once the climb is overcome, a steep ascending ramp (32º) continues that will lead us to the end of the cavity. The gallery is of good dimensions, with heights exceeding 5 m. In the final stretch it widens a little and widths on the order of 4 metres are reached.
Concrezioni
The whole cave presents bare rock, with no notable sediments. Even so, we can still find remains of very eroded old concretions.
Progressione
It is advisable to bring a rope, as it will be useful at least when making the descent.
Storia
The place name of the cavity appears labelled on the ICGC map and, as it does not appear in any speleological catalogue, it aroused the curiosity of members of ECM Barcelonès and GE Badalona, who on 23-3-2023 were able to locate it but could not explore it, since the cave begins with a fine climb of 4 metres. Although the wall to be overcome is not entirely vertical, there are no good holds to grab, so they decided to return another day with a rope, which would surely be very useful to them, at least on the descent.
They returned on 8-4-2023. Although the wall to be overcome is not very difficult for anyone who is a “handy” climber (it is possibly a IIIº), when one reaches a certain age one is not up for doing many acrobatics, and wanting to make sure of the move they brought a small aluminium ladder of 4 rungs in order to help overcome the most vertical part of the wall. And that was how they managed to complete the exploration.
