Descrizione
Morfologia
The cavity is completely collapsed at -1.45 metres; a large block that appears to have shifted occupies almost the entire floor, and its sides are full of earth.
Idrologia
On the E side, where the fissure narrows, a faint current of air emerges.
Progressione
The exploration carried out on 26 July 1897 by Norbert Font i Sagué in the company of the Maspons Angladell brothers, Pere Pagès and Maspons Camarasa, leaves a written record that they descended 13 metres through a rather narrow fissure that ended collapsed by rubble.
Storia
The first mention of this cavity appears under the name Forat del Bach del Prat, in the April 1897 bulletin of the Centre Excursionista, within Font i Sagué's Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya, as a result of the enquiries made to members of the Centre Excursionista de Catalunya about knowledge of cavities in the country; it is clear that the location is not very precise, since they place it on a shady slope, while in reality the cavity is on top of a ridge.
On 26 July of the same year Font i Sagué visits and explores it accompanied by local people, cataloguing it under the name Forat de la Baga de Can Torrella in the December 1897 bulletin.
One year later, 1898, Font i Sagué publishes in the July bulletin the account of the exploration carried out the previous year.
The passing of the years led this cavity into oblivion, but in the catalogues of the 80s it appears cited, in addition to the previous names, under the name Forat de Can Prat de la Riba, which we suppose is due to its proximity to that farmhouse.
