They were very lucky to survive that. The weather around the whole area was horrible and I wonder what he was thinking even flying that day. Might have been fuel starvation as in the picture the prop blade I can see is not bent. Don
Flying in that weather.......... NOT Smart..
Flying in that terrain at that time.... NOT Smart..
Making a perfect, up hill landing to dissapate energy.. REALLY Smart..
Hopefully the pilot learned something.

We had high winds, rain, snow and a lot of BIG cells moving through northern Nevada and southern Idaho all day and into the night.
