YACOLT, Wash. Two friends were able to walk away from a plane crash in rural Clark County Monday afternoon with only minor injuries. A little scratch on my forehead, said Craig Beles. A few scratches on my leg. Truman got a little more. A couple black eyes. That s it.
Beles was the passenger and co-pilot alongside his friend, Truman O Brien, for a flight from Bend, Ore to Vashon Island, Wash.
Beles says shortly after crossing over the Columbia River into Washington, at an altitude of 8,000 feet, the engine on the four-seat aircraft started to cough. The plane started to descend.

One of the warnings, a Level 4 on a scale of 5, said there was a high avalanche danger for parts of North Cascades National Park by the Canadian border, extending south through Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest and into parts of Gifford Pinchot National Forest, which is about 140 miles southeast of Seattle.
