Probable Cause

The decision of both pilots to fly into a steep canyon, which resulted in the airplane being unable to maintain a sufficient altitude to clear rising terrain. Contributing to the accident was their delayed initial action in responding to the hazard, and their failure to recognize the danger due to mountain obscuration caused by thick haze and smoke.
