Pilot survives crash/forced landing in CO

Apparently she's twice lucky. Saw an article where she was involved in a cirrus crash about 3 years ago in Guatemala. Seemed like maybe going with owner or new buyer. Flight from Cali to there and hit tree on landing into soccer field "runway". Killed the 72 yr old man and sent her to the hospital. I don't know about her, but I think I'd call my luck good at this point and have feet stay on turf.
 
Sounds like too much flying in Pacific Northwest slop made her think clouds here are similarly wet and innocuous. Around here this time of year they'll turn you into a ball of ice in seconds.
