THE STUDENT PILOT WAS ON A SOLO CROSS-COUNTRY FLIGHT FROM HILLSBORO, OR TO YAKIMA, WA, TO REDMOND, OR AND THEN RETURN TO HILLSBORO. THE PILOT REPORTED A NUMBER OF ALTITUDE AND COURSE DEVIATIONS DURING THE FIRST TWO LEGS OF THE CROSS-COUNTRY TO AVOID CLOUDS. WHILE ON A DOWNWIND FOR RUNWAY 28 AT REDMOND, THE ENGINE LOST POWER. ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE ENGINE PROVIDED POWER FOR ONLY A SHORT TIME. WHILE MAKING A FORCED LANDING ON A ROAD, THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A TREE AND TURNED OVER.
