Read the full NTSB narrative

THE PLT, WHO WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH THE AREA, WAS GIVEN DIRECTIONS & TRAFFIC PATTERN INFO TO THE MEADOWS MIST ARPT, A A PVT/CHARTED STRIP NEAR BELLINGHAM, WA. SHE CAME UPON A SIMILAR GRASS STRIP IN THAT AREA WITH A PARKED ACFT ON IT. THINKING THIS UNCHARTED AIRSTRIP WAS HER DESTINATION, SHE LANDED. WHILE LANDING, SHE REALIZED THAT SHE WAS ON A STRIP THAT WAS MUCH SHORTER THAN THE 2000 FT STRIP THAT SHE HAD INTENDED TO LAND ON. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE ACFT WENT OFF THE DEPARTURE END OF THE RWY & INTO A BLUEBERRY PATCH.
