What can rush downhill as a huge mass of soil?
It can be called a landslide.
What is rock and soil slide downhill called?

Which type of mass movement occurs when sediments slowly move downhill because freezing and thawing?
The process in which sediments move slowly downhill, is called creep. It is common where freezing and thawing occur. As ice expands in soil, it pushed sediments up. Then as soil thaws, the sediments move farther downslope. Over time, creep can move large amounts of sediment, possibly causing damage to some structures

rills
