life due to the fast current in the valleys in the downstream area in the event of localized heavy
rains in the upstream area of the mountains and valleys
- Districts where campers and vacationers are isolated, or where there is a high risk of isolation
due to the fast current in the valleys
- Districts that are very vulnerable to heavy rains during the summer season owing to their deep
valleys and/or sharp slopes, and/or due to the presence of many campsites in their
surroundings
