MONUMENT VALLEY, Utah—Authorities say a pilot survived the crash of a small plane in southeastern Utah near the Arizona border.
The Civil Air Patrol says the single-engine plane crashed Sunday near Nokai Dome, a mountain in San Juan County.
Capt. Steve Hamilton of the air patrol in Colorado says the plane flipped when the pilot tried to land in a remote area. He says the flight originated in Durango in Colorado.
Hamilton says the pilot had no major injuries. A National Park Service helicopter took him to Bullfrog, Utah.
No one else was on the plane, a Maule M-7-235C, and the pilot’s name was not released.
