Falling mass of snow (9)

I believe the answer is:

avalanche

(Other definitions for avalanche that I've seen before include "Snowslip" , "This dangerous flow from some peaks" , "Large mass of sliding snow or stone" , "Snow slip" , "serious fall" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
