Sustained moderate danger. Good timing and conditions help, but do not remove the risk entirely.
A fall is usually well controlled: reliable gear close by, clear belays, terrain that does not lead to hitting ledges or the ground.

A snow section without an angle isn't included in the technical difficulty score.
