Alpine peril (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avalanche

(Other definitions for avalanche that I've seen before include "Heavy fall of rock or snow from mountain" , "Deluge" , "heavy snowfall" , "Landfall" , "Rapid movement of a large mass of snow or ice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
