For the expedition contàvem the exploration team formed by Cris, Ramon, Bernat, Raimon, Paco and I (Natxo).

After trying to locate Raymond heaven and earth unsuccessful, thinking that the night has confused the number one ballaruques, Pallejā decided to leave and take direction Can Massana where you park to make the approach.

At Massana Can we get the appearance of Raimon was no phone but motivated us waiting for parking.

In the same parking lot, we start cutting the "coils" of ropes and prepare the logistics of the exit by sorting the collective material according to the topo of the cavity and begin the approach to the Agulles refuge – Vincent Barbé (45 my. about)

Once we refuge recent reminders to report technical maneuvers of ascent and descent and we went to the mouth cavity.

This cavity has two chutes top and bottom, in this case access to the bottom where the output is a bit more exposed to the shaft 32m.

Once this well flown, the same shaft continues a well dressed for a casting 16m xulíssima.

On the basis of this well should continue to climb with some small and narrow down a small pit -8m. Then make sure to climb up to the famous well of the beam -25m (so called because years ago the installation was on a transverse beam placed over the diaclase-shaped well)

Having descended the shaft, move opposed by the same diaclasa often obstructed by blocks. From here d', we have the last three wells chains ( -11m -20m i -14m) ending at the famous lake.

At this point I started the crisis and the rise while the rest of the team led by Paco, which opens up the way they decrease the level of -123m.

After photos of rigor is only the harder it up and because the wells are progressive and fatigue accumulates is costly exit.

Little by little we go out and finally Bernat comes out and is in charge of uninstalling the cavity.

To tell you that it is a magnificent cavity due to its formations and peculiar shapes in conglomerate and that it also has excellent facilities with chemicals.

In summary we enjoyed a wonderful day we hope to repeat soon caving, given the small section of "espeleolocos" gradually consolidating.

Here is a small vídeo to give you an idea of ​​the magnificent day we had 😉
