Narrative:
As the pilot approached his destination, another pilot informed him that runway 35 was the active runway. He was also warned of 50 foot trees near the approach end of the runway. The pilot said he remained 'higher on the approach. . .then reduced power and began a slightly more steep descent than usual' (using 25 degrees flaps.) When he flared the airplane approximately 10 feet above the runway, it 'must have stalled.' A hard landing followed.

Probable Cause: The premature flaring of the airplane, resulting in an inadvertent stall.
