Ely, Nevada - Accident?

The story I have heard is pilot lost control in really nasty thermal top, perhaps spin and recovery straight down or inverted, felt the glider was broken or uncontrollable and punched out. Walked back to the FBO. Glider is a ASH31, lying in a remote canyon outside of Ely. Things can get really nasty out of Ely sometimes. Been there, done that.
