Crashed.
The accident occurred at Skwenta, AK, United States while taxiing. The damage was substantial. The certificated commercial pilot and one passenger were preparing to depart a river area on a non-scheduled cfr part 135 fishing/guide cross-country flight. The pilot applied engine power to move the float equipped airplane from a sand bar onto the river. As the airplane began to move, the right horizontal stabilizer struck a tree stump, damaging the stabilizer spar and fuselage.
