Description

Largest in the Jou de la Cotinosa area at >100m

The entrance leads to a small shelter in the rock and after a few meters ends in a narrow passage almost completely filled with mud and small pebbles. Forcing this passage allows access to a medium-sized chamber.

There are two possible directions, up the western slope of the cavity, to +11 m of elevation, or down to the east to -8m ending in impassable rift. The lower route is tight with crawls and narrow bends

The route up through the western zone of the cave, has the greatest development, via a meander with strong signs of erosion. Passable at the top but never reaching a large size, The meander deepens at various points reaching its base.

After reaching an area with abundant formations, the rift widens before reaching a collapse of rocks. No way on

A seasonal stream appears to run through the entire cave
