Sounds like the damage was limited to two relatively small areas. So the big question is probably determining the stability of the mountainside above and knocking down any other areas that might drop unpredictability.

Interesting, but kinda long, story. We went to Fun Valley Family RV Campground on US 160 between South Fork and Wolf Creek Pass many years ago. US 160 was squeezed between a mountain on one side and the river and the far end of the campground on the other. Only way to widen the highway was to blast out part of the mountain. Someone made a big mistake. Just before we arrived the first explosion blew car size boulders across the highway, into the campground, shearing off several very large spruce trees just above ground level. And burying the highway. Fortunately they had sense enough to evacuate that section before the blast. For 4-5 days, 24 hours a day, we heard the beep beep of backup warnings and booms of large rocks being dumped in trucks. There were 14 family and friends there in RVs and cabins so we could not easily pack up and move somewhere else. By the 5-6 day they had the highway back open. And campground cleared of boulders. And campground had plenty of firewood for sale.
