A cornice (from the Italian cornice meaning ledge) is generally any horizontal decorative molding that crowns a building or furniture elementâ the cornice over a door or window, for instance, or the cornice around the top edge of a pedestal or along the top of an interior wall.
This build-up is most common on the leeward sides of mountains. Cornices are extremely dangerous and travelling above or below them should be avoided. When a cornice collapses, it breaks in from the cornice to the top of the peak; even being on the snow on top of rock exposes the alpinist to hazard in this situation. The best practice in mountaineering is to stay far enough back from the edge so as not to be able to see the drop, as an approximate metric of exposure.
