C-FPWC, a privately registered Piper PA-32-300 aircraft, was conducting a flight from Saskatoon/Corman Air Park, SK (CJN5) to Cree Lake/Crystal Lodge (Midgett Field), SK (CKS8) with only the pilot on board. During cruise flight, the pilot encountered a low ceiling and elected to turn back to CJN5. Approximately 95 nm from the destination, the engine (Avco Lycoming IO-540-K1A5) began to lose power. The pilot elected to conduct a precautionary landing onto a road and, upon touchdown, the aircraft pulled to the left and struck a sign post as the aircraft entered a ditch.
During the ensuing skid, the nose landing gear collapsed, and the aircraft came to rest in an adjacent field. The pilot was uninjured, however the aircraft sustained substantial damage. The ELT did not activate and there was no fire.
