THE PILOT, WHO HAD JUST LIFTED OFF A SECOND TIME DURING AN UPHILL TAKEOFF, ELECTED TO ABORT BECAUSE SHE WAS NOT SURE THAT SHE WOULD CLEAR THE TREES OFF THE END OF THE GRASS/TURF PRIVATE STRIP. THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHED DOWN AFTER IT HAD PASSED THE MID-POINT OF THE RUNWAY, AND BECAUSE BOTH RUNWAY ENDS ARE 12 TO 16 FEET LOWER THAN THE MID-POINT, THE PILOT WAS THEN TRYING TO STOP ON A WET, DOWN-SLOPING, GRASS RUNWAY. THE AIRCRAFT SLID OF THE END OF THE RUNWAY, CROSSED A ROAD, IMPACTED VEGETATION, AND CAUGHT FIRE.
