Granted all the reported 'difficulties' of this airport (of which I have no experience) but what still remains a complete mystery to me is the reported location of the crash. All this talk of poor lighting, 'shifty' winds and the like does not explain a crash so far away from any conceivable approach or circuit pattern and, as far as I can see, the 'wrong' side of difficult terrain.
