According to a statement from the Yellowstone County Sheriff's Office

Linder and Blain were able to locate the downed aircraft near the bottom of the slope on the west face of Dunn Mountain, which can be seen from Hwy 87 N. They landed and were able to determine there were no survivors.

A preliminary visual inspection of the crash scene shows evidence that the plane likely clipped a guy wire of a radio tower at the top of Dunn Mountain.

Sheriff Linder says federal authorities will also be on the site of the plane crash Monday morning.
