Narrative:
After a successful approach to runway 1, mt snow (4v8), and complete touchdown on rollout, the right main landing gear collapsed and the propeller stuck runway. Plane slid off to right and stopped in grass at parking area. There was a pothole in the runway at or near point of touchdown. I think the problem was due to poor maintenance of the runway.
