The tailwheel airplane sustained substantial damage on impact with a snow bank and subsequently nosed over when the airplane departed the runway during landing. The student pilot stated, "Touched down, plane did a little hop and then landed straight. Plane began to swerve left - I corrected, not enough tailwheel response to get back straight. Went off runway at intersection of 25-33 into snow. Hit snow bank and plane nosed over and then on back." The pilot reported no mechanical malfunctions with the airplane in reference to the flight.
Probable Cause: The student pilot not maintaining directional control during the landing. A factor was the snow bank the pilot encountered.
