Description

GS Vulcains - 22/12/2019

A narrow 15m entrance pitch with well decorated walls reaches the floor of a narrow rift. The passage ascends past a fine formation and after 5m turns sharply right but is blocked by boulders after a further 5m. In the opposite direction from the pitch the passage descends steeply over a loose rubble slope to reach a loose traverse which needs bolting. In the 10m travelled in this direction oxygen had fallen from 19.6% to 16.7%.
