A further update by a pilot who hiked to the crash site was that the glider's wreckage indicated it was traveling in a northerly direction parallel to the ridgeline and on the windward (west) side of the ridge top. A wind gust or eddy pushed the glider into the ridge with the left-wing low. The left wingtip impacted near the top of the ridge, shedding parts of the wingtip in the process. This tremendous drag cartwheeled the glider, causing the cockpit and right-wing to impact. The force of the impact disintegrated all of the parts, leaving the spars as the most recognizable pieces. Marek died on impact and did not suffer.
