Mountaineering is a sport with many hazards, which are often divided into three main groups: weather, falling, and avalanches. Weather is one of the primary dangers of mountaineering. Snowstorm may cause poor visibility, leading to climbers getting lost or falling into the void. Besides snowstorm, avalanches can consist of falling rocks, ice, and even gear.
