The Avalanche

The Avalanche is an area in northeastern Sholazar Basin. When the Lifeblood Pillar was sabotaged by the Cult of the Damned and fell, that allowed snows from Icecrown to collapse into the basin, creating the Avalanche and giving the Scourge a pathway in the region, with flesh giants and abominations patrolling the snows. 
The Lost Lands spread out from the Avalanche, an area blighted and dying, the air fouled with a yellow haze, and the ground thick with undead.Exploring Azeroth: Northrend, pg. 122 High above, lies the Fleshwerks in Icecrown, a large facility of the Scourge which is dedicated to the creation of abominations and flesh giants.Exploring Azeroth: Northrend, pg. 135
During the war against the Lich King, the area was overflowing with Scourge forces and served as the point of entry for the Lich King's invasion, as the pillar was created in order to protect the land.Exploring Azeroth: Northrend, pg. 119 Adventurers accompanied Pilot Vic to scout the area,Reconnaissance Flight and later were sent by the Avatar of Freya with The Etymidian, one of the most destructive forces ever created by the titans, to destroy thousands of undead and the overlords leading the invasion.Reclamation
Following the war against the Jailer, the brothers Bronzebeard reported that the area is no longer patrolled by the flesh giants and abominations, but that there are still common undead present.
