A ski equipped Stinson 108-2, was operating from an unmaintained private airstrip 6.5 nm SE of the Glendon, AB aerodrome (CFP5) to Spencer Lake, AB. The airstrip was snow covered with the snow depth of approximately 6-inches. During the take-off run, the left ski contacted a 12-inch snow drift and the aircraft veered to the right and pitched nose up and left the runway surface.
The aircraft banked right and the right wing tip contacted the ground. The pilot was unable to maintain control, while the propeller struck the ground and the landing gear collapsed. The aircraft came to rest approximately 200 feet to the right side of the runway surface. The pilot and passenger received no injuries. The ELT did not activate.
