Best Answer

Avalanches disrupt communications by blocking roads and rail road tracks. They can isolate communities from normal ability to get goods and services. If structures are in the area, they can be destroyed easily by a wave of snow or mud. Anything that is built on these areas are going to slide away and no longer be available for use. If things are swept into rivers or lakes, it can affect the ability to get water from them.
