Approach

approx 400m below the Caseton de Andara on route to sotres, branch left up the hillside for 100m.

Entrance

2 shafts are to be found on a promininet fault line

Description

the left hand shaft becomes too tight at 6m, but the right descends to an overall depth of 80m.

The pitch is broken by ledges and the large 30m last section leads to a sloping boulder floor and choke.

A possibility of a high level passage remains but there is no draught

No 61 (1977) is higher up the fault line, just below a small knoll
