Was driving down the bypass road to the Cliff lodge, saw a solo skier come out of Westward Ho at Alta between the Ben Hame House and the Powder Ridge condos, at the convexity to the road. Small slab popped out and carried him down the whole slope into the center of the road, burried to his waist. He was able to dig himself out as I stopped to make sure he was alright. He said he was fine and carried on his way. On my way back to Alta to call it in to Alta Central I saw the Marshall probing the debris. Told him I saw the whole thing and the only person affected was out of there.
