The pilot reported that there were no pre-impact mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airframe or engine that would have precluded normal operation. The airplane sustained substantial damage to both wings and the fuselage.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during landing, which resulted in runway excursion and collision with terrain.
