What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
During flight, the pilot observed the presence of oil on the engine cowling shortly after takeoff. Concerned about a potential oil leak, the pilot elected to execute an unscheduled landing in a barren area near the edge of the Colorado river, just outside the privacy data omitted golf course, to investigate the issue further. Upon touchdown, the aircraft experienced a failure of the right landing gear while landing in rough dirt near the water, resulting in the propeller striking the ground and the right-wing tip coming to rest in contact with the terrain.
