Saw the evening news yesterday and the heli guy had some images. It indeed is a nice drop with vertical sides I could see on tv something that looked like horizontal passage at the bottom. According to the old man from the APA (thats something like the US EPA) there is gypsum and sinkholes are becoming common in that part of the state, there is a number of recently opened sinkholes along the creek. I'll keep you posted

Iturbide is not far from Pozo del Gavil�n, so the collapse could have been in gypsum. I wonder whether it has vertical sides, and whether it ends in water. Could be a nice drop!
