Analysis
At the end of a cross country flt, the plt reported that on the first attempt to land on a dirt road the airspeed and alt were high so he elected to go-around. On the second attempt the approach was too slow and the acft stalled aprx 8 ft AGL. The acft touched-down and bounced. The plt added pwr and retracted the flaps in an attempt to go-around, however, the acft bounced several times over aprx 1000 ft of rough ground and came to rest nose down in a wash.
