Eden, UT – Double Fatality In Small-Plane Crash Near Powder Mountain

Eden, UT (May 29, 2021) – Two men were killed when a single-engine plane crashed on Saturday, May 29th near Powder Mountain Ski Resort in Eden.

One of the men died during the impact. The second initially survived the wreck but was badly burned and was med-flighted to a trauma center in critical condition where, despite their best efforts, burn unit physicians were unable to save him.

Both men remain unidentified.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the families of the deceased victims at this time.

Although statistically speaking, flying is the safest method of transportation, there are still risks involved, especially when faulty equipment could be to blame. This is one of the leading reasons for the heavy regulation of the aviation production trade.

Defective equipment is not something anyone wants to come across while they are several thousand feet in the air. After any type of aviation accident, a thorough investigation has to be carried out in order to determine exactly what went wrong and if the crash might have been avoided.  

Although it is true that no amount of money can ever make us feel whole again after losing a loved one due to the careless and negligent actions of other motorists, families find that having the financial resources necessary to cover medical treatment, lost earnings, funeral costs, and other expenses they endure after losing loved ones is helpful.
