Default Tree (1) Airplane (0)

There currently isn't a record of this accident in the NTSB database. The
bird is based in Colorado.
(http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinqu...umbertxt=6487J) And,
mountains in the background look like Colorado.

The accident must have occurred just prior to the big snow storm.

There was a case of N7487J landing in the trees of the end of the runway
back in 1978 (http://www.ntsb.gov/NTSB/brief.asp?ev_id=41607&key=0). That
was the only Piper with a registration ending in 87J that NTSB reports say
anything about a collision with a tree.
