From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry’s history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

Owner and advisor departed sulfur creek ranch and made several stops before attempting a landing at foot ranch. From there they were going to end the day at mccall, ID. The grass at Root Ranch landing strip was tall and during landing roll they did not notice the runway end markers until they were there. Serious application of brakes did not stop them in time. They overran the runway and dropped into a ravine/bog resulting in minor damage to the aircraft.
