"Frozen Beards"
Can be found:
High mountainous regions of France and Switzerland
Description:
These Gnome-like creatures are known for their icicle coated beards
and white fur garments. Their names are Swiss for “frozen beards”.
Their large feet enable them to ski or use snow shoes. They are also
quite useful for digging- out of avalanches or to conceal themselves
within the thick snowy
regions. They live in networks of caves and tunnels.
Little is known about their lifestyle and tend to appear only when
blizzards or freezing temperatures have forced mountaineers from the
higher altitudes. Their attitude towards humans is friendly and
helpful but credit is usually given to St Bernard Dogs or other
rescue canines.They give warnings of avalanches by whistling or hooting.
