THE ACCIDENT INVOLVED A TRI-PACER WITH FOUR PERSONS AND ABOUT 150 POUNDS OF BAGGAGE ON BOARD WHO WERE FROM CANADA AND VACATIONING IN THE U.S. THE PILOT SAID THE ACFT BECAME AIRBORNE AND CLIMBED TO ABOUT 100 FT ABOVE THE RWY, BUT WOULD NOT MAINTAIN ALTITUDE DUE TO THE HIGH DENSITY ALTITUDE. THE PILOT DECIDED TO LAND IN A FIELD, BUT THE FIELD WAS ROUGH AND UNEVEN WHICH RESULTED IN DAMAGE TO THE ACFT. THE DENSITY ALTITUDE AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT WAS CALCULATED TO BE ABOUT 6,000 FEET.
