The pilot said he was landing on a 500 feet long by 60 feet wide gravel bar. He indicated that the airplane touched down short of the normal landing area, the left wheel landed in a hole which he had not seen, and the left wing contacted a brush pile. The airplane nosed over, and sustained substantial damage to the vertical stabilizer, right front lift strut, and left wing.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to touchdown at the proper point on the landing area. Factors associated with this accident were the rough landing area, and the brush along the gravel bar.
