THE PILOT WAS LANDING ON AN ICE COVERED GRAVEL RUNWAY AS A CONTINUATION OF HIS BUSINESS FLIGHT TO REMOTE VILLAGES. DURING THE LANDING ROLL, THE AIRPLANE BEGAN TO DRIFT TO THE LEFT, TOWARD A 4 FOOT SNOW BANK. THE PILOT OVER-CORRECTED AND THE AIRPLANE SLID TO THE RIGHT AND STRUCK A 2 FOOT TALL SNOW BANK ALONG THE RIGHT EDGE OF THE RUNWAY. THE AIRPLANE BECAME STUCK AND THE PILOT DUG THE AIRPLANE OUT. AN INSPECTION AT THAT TIME DID NOT REVEAL ANY OBVIOUS DAMAGE. TWO MONTHS LATER, THE PILOT NOTICED DAMAGE THAT WAS EVIDENT TO THE LEFT WING AND FIREWALL AND REPORTED THE ACCIDENT.
