Best Answer

Avalanches are one of the few natural disasters that can actually be man made. Disasters like Tornadoes, Hurricanes, Volcanic Eruptions, and Earth quakes are normally only done naturally with out man made interference. A disaster like a Avalanche can actually be created just by blasting the side of a mountain, or having the right sound volume present. Other then that like many natural disasters some require location and specific elements. for example if theres no present snow then you probably won't have to deal with an avalanches. Plus an Avalanche is one of the few natural disasters that's only ice/snow based.
