Incident Overview
A pilot reported that during the landing rollout, a gust of wind lifted the right wing, causing the airplane to veer off the runway. The pilot stated that after the gust picked up the right wing, the airplane was blown off the runway surface.

Final Position
Upon touching down in the soft field, the right main wheel dug into the ground. This caused the airplane to tip up onto its right wing.
