The pilot said the airplane was in cruise flight, when a severe vibration shook the airframe. He secured the engine and made a forced landing on a dirt road. During the landing roll, the left wheel contacted a soft sandy berm, pivoting the airplane to the left and into a ditch, where it nosed over. Postaccident examination disclosed that part of the propeller had delaminated.
Probable Cause: delamination of a propeller blade. A factor relating to the accident was: the terrain condition in the emergency landing area (soft/sandy berm and ditch).
