The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot was flying from glennallen to anchorage. The weather in the tahneta pass was marginal so the pilot turned around and attempted to land at eureka lodge. The pilot drug the snow covered strip prior to landing. During this dragging of the strip the tires broke through the snow crust and the aircraft ended up on its nose. The pilot stated the snow was about one foot deep and very slushy and heavy.
