BIG SKY (AP) - An all-terrain vehicle went off the road and rolled down an embankment Monday near here, killing the driver, the Montana Highway Patrol said.

The victim, a 19-year-old Ennis man, was a construction worker at Moonlight Basin ski resort, the company said in a news release.

The accident happened on Mountain Loop Road between the Moonlight Lodge and the intersection of Mountain Loop Road and Diamond Hitch Road.

The man apparently was driving around a corner, went off the road and rolled down an embankment, the patrol said. He was found dead at the scene at about 1 p.m. with the ATV on top of him. The patrol is investigating.

The victim was employed by Mountain Top Construction, a subsidiary of Moonlight Basin Ranch. His name was withheld pending notification of family.

Moonlight Basin has arranged counseling services for employees who feel they need it, and has offered its staff personal time off. Mountain Top Construction will be closed on Tuesday.

The death pushed Montana's 2006 traffic fatality toll to 219, compared with 212 on Oct. 16, 2005.
