Here you can read about the latest big discovery of the mighty Canin Massif in Italy. Members of Grotta Continua caving team discovered a new cave at the top of the remains of Canin Glacier, which is starting with a pit of 495m depth, which is dedicated to Fabio Scabar, speleologist from Trieste recently passed away. This giant pit is currently the deepest one in Italy, and 7th in the world. The cave is keep going with amazing draft, explorers turned back from -670m on their last explo, because of lack of rope.

Hi,
errata corrige, the pit is 495m deep (http://www.caverbob.com/pit.htm). It’s dedicated to Fabio Scabar, speleologist from Trieste recently passed away. For obvious reasons exploration will be resumed during the up-comming summer season.
Cheers.
