"The top of a deep, wooded, jungle depression that appeared to have some promise but seems to have no holes." This was the original description but further inspection at Easter 2010 revealed a couple of interesting holes. The site is called Pozo Negro on the old maps.
There is an easy descent via a gully on the northwest side. At the foot of the gully, on the right, are 2 open joints that can be walked into. The first is blind, whilst the second one splits. The left branch is choked but the right hand one is blocked by rocks but opens into passable cave beyond. There is a good outward draught.
The rift on the right at the foot of the gully was excavated in the summer, 2010 and a tight, 3m long passage entered which choked.
