Landing on the mountain road in a large a/c is unlikely to have a positive outcome, any semblance of control would be lost once wings, gear, engines depart.

A more plausible scenario might be to land on a mountain meadow or glacier with a downslope to slow the deceleration. Once he gets it on the deck he is likely just along for the ride.

Wheels up on a glacier?

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