THE STUDENT PILOT WAS CRUISING AT 2000' MSL ON A SOLO FLIGHT, WHEN THE ENGINE LOST POWER. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES WERE INITIATED AND A FORCED LANDING WAS MADE IN AN OPEN FIELD. DURING THE LANDING ROLL, THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A DIRT BANK AND WAS DAMAGED. A POST-ACCIDENT INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE REVEALED NO EVIDENCE OF A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. WHEN AN ENGINE RUN-UP WAS MADE, ALL SYSTEMS OPERATED SATISFACTORILY. WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE CONDUCIVE TO FORMATION OF CARBURETOR ICE.
