Description
Result of the cooling of the climate which leads to changes in the glacier, it dates from the last great glaciation of the quaternary during which the Vallée de la Blanche was located at the southern European limit of the valleys encumbered with ice. This one thickens, grows and advances in the valley and carries with it on its way a multitude of blocks. It was deposited 20 years ago.
