Narrative:While in normal cruise flight, the engine lost power. The pilot made a forced landing next to a dirt road in a canyon. During the landing, the landing gear folded back and buckled the fuselage. Additional tubular structure members were bent. Post-accident examination revealed that fuel flow was restricted due to a partially obstructed fuel filter.
Probable Cause: A partial blockage of the fuel filter, causing fuel starvation. A contributing factor was the rough terrain.
