1823 cave
Arredondo VN5031(2)9258(0) Altitude 398m Length 214m Depth 8m
A phreatic remnant in the woods to the east of Cueva Vallina
top entrance.
An obvious entrance 50m down from the track which rises above Vallina top
entrance. The entrance alcove slopes down to the right into passage 3 to
4 metres high. There are possible cat skeletons along the passage before
a roof fall is met. Beyond, the passage splits: straight on leads to a small
choke; to the left the passage heads back to the entrance, ending in a choked
crawl. This section has evidence of previous visits: there is dated lettering
gouged in the mud.
The northern side of the "main chamber" beyond the entrance comes close to
the top of the ramp in the Vallina upper series.
