I learned that avalanches are dangerous ad you don't want to get caught in one. Even one slight sound can trigger an avalanche. Avalanches are falling piles of snow that can kill you. I would rather be in a tornado than an avalanche because tornados are scary also but I live in Oklahoma so i am destined to have to get used to them.
