A Cessna 207 on a charter flight from Aniak to Crooked Creek lost all engine power at about 1,000 ft while maneuvering to avoid a rain squall near the airport. The pilot picked a marshy, tree-covered area for a forced landing, and the aircraft suffered substantial fuselage damage. The NTSB found no mechanical problem with the engine after a teardown, and one occupant had a minor injury.
