La surface du dépôt peut être encombrée de blocs anguleux, de boules arrondies ou simplement constituée de neige (pas de blocs de diamètre supérieure à 30 cm). Dans les deux premiers cas, on parlera de dépôt grossier tandis que le terme dépôt fin recouvre le dernier cas. [...] Le dépôt peut être souillé par des éléments étrangers (rochers, arbres, débris d'ouvrages, terre...) car les grosses avalanches denses) ont un grand pouvoir d'érosion. 3, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9p%C3%B4t%20d%27avalanche
