The analysis of the deposition zones is one of the main steps in the debris flows hazard assessments. For the area located north and northeast of Anton village is known that in the last 100 years there is at least one debris flow event. Field observations, geological characteristics, and raster analysis for prediction of possible sediment accumulations over the fans, related with debris flow activity were performed for preliminary analysis of the debris flows hazard in the area.
