Danger description

As a consequence of new snow and wind, wind slabs formed. These are to be evaluated with care and prudence in steep terrain. Mostly the avalanches are small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
