The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing. The pilot reported there was no mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot misjudged the landing approach, which resulted in the airplane hitting a tree.
