Incident Overview
A pilot reported that he landed at a remote, unimproved site with the intention of going hunting. After landing, he assessed the wind conditions and realized they were stronger than he had anticipated. He believed that if he left the cockpit to park the airplane, it would be damaged. Consequently, he decided to take off instead of proceeding with the hunting trip.
Flight and Collision
The pilot stated that soon after liftoff, at an estimated 100 feet above ground level, a strong gust of wind forced the airplane to make an uncommanded turn to the right and downwind. The airplane began to sink rapidly, and the pilot was unable to avoid a collision with terrain.
Outcome
No further details about injuries or damage were provided in the report. The pilot's account forms the basis of this summary.
