Approach
?5m west Caseton de Andara to and 60m south of T102. Junction of the track from the 'Long Cabana'

Entrance

3 entrances The most clearly seen from the track is the middle level adit entrance which is set 6m above the track. It is supported by wooden cross beams and appears to be loose and unsafe. The top entrance can be found by taking the path which rises steeply from the track. At about 20m it levels out and on the left hand side there is an open shaft about 2w x 3m, with ‘1899’ carved by it. The lower entrance is just below the adit and is made up of a steep loose slope leading to a 5m pitch. Lower entrance investigated leading to a 3m pitch which was undescended.

No further way on was observed and its potential is limited as it seems to be in the same rift as T102.
