THE PLT FLEW INTO A CANYON WITH THE INTENTION OF TURNING AROUND TO BACK OUT. HE THEN DECIDED THE CANYON WAS TOO NARROW FOR A 180 DEGREE TURN. HE CONTINUED FLYING UP THE CANYON WHILE ATTEMPTING TO GAIN ALT, HOWEVER, THE RISING TERRAIN EXCEEDED THE ACFT'S CLIMB PERFORMANCE CAPABILITY. ONCE REALIZING THE TERRAIN COULD NOT BE CLEARED, THE PLT FLARED THE ACFT ON THE MOUNTAIN AND THE ACFT SUBSEQUENTLY NOSED OVER.
