Wheels up on a glacier?

Better have at least two miles and it would be a hell-u-va ride.....

Maybe a water landing in a river like in NYC?

Valid point, not a lot of options in the mountains.

Trying to come up with a plausible scenario that would be survivable is challenging, landing in a relatively flat area with a deceleration that will not kill you is the key.
