Skier entered the chute and after a couple of turns noticed loose snow starting to entrain behind him so he cut out. The loose snow slide continued to entrain snow and ran at least 600 feet vertical. This didn't pose a great threat but definitely would've knocked a person over especially as it continued to gain mass as it entrained more snow on the decent. It ran on a bed surface of an avalanche from the Xmas cycle.
