Descrizione

Morfologia

The cavity has a spectacular entrance of 22 x 13 m. A shaft of about 18 metres of vertical drop is descended, with the base covered in snow and ice. Between this shaft and the S wall it is possible to penetrate a little further down until it becomes impenetrable at 22.3 metres of depth. The cavity is opened at the contact between the limestone and the granite.

Storia
