What ia a huge fall of ice and snow?

A huge fall of ice and snow is commonly referred to as an avalanche. It occurs when a large mass of snow, ice, and debris rapidly descends down a mountainside, often triggered by factors such as heavy snowfall, temperature changes, or human activity. Avalanches can be extremely dangerous, causing destruction and posing significant risks to anyone in their path. They are a natural hazard prevalent in mountainous regions with steep terrain.
