Avalanches have occurred in numerous mountainous regions around the world, including the Rocky Mountains in North America, the Alps in Europe, and the Himalayas in Asia. Notable historical incidents include the 1916 avalanche in the Swiss Alps, which claimed the lives of over 100 people, and the 2010 avalanche in the Himalayas that killed several climbers. These natural disasters are often triggered by heavy snowfall, rapid temperature changes, or human activities such as skiing and snowmobiling.
