Caratteristiche

Località

To the S of can Jaques a torrent gully begins that descends in a SE direction and another more diffuse one. Shortly before their junction, between the two, is the entrance of the pit. About 60 metres to the ESE the ruins of can Bença can still be recognized.

To get there one must leave can Jaques by the path that goes to the pla de les Solius (SE direction). The path descends between thorny plants and at 130 metres we reach a col (70 metres before arriving at a cistern with a croc). From the col itself go in a SW direction about 100 metres to the entrance, which is normally full of ivy.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Entrance of notable dimensions (5 x 2 m) that communicates with a shaft of just over 5 metres that maintains the proportions of the entrance. At its base, toward the SE, a window communicates with a shaft of 9 metres with the walls lined by flowstone and at its bottom is the point of maximum depth of the pit.

Concrezioni

The 9-metre shaft has its walls lined by flowstone. The sloping gallery ends in a small step filled with stalactitic columns fallen from the ceiling.

Progressione

From the base of the entrance shaft, in a SW direction, a sloping gallery originates and ends in a small step filled with stalactitic columns fallen from the ceiling.
