The vehicle became engulfed in flames, but the fire was put out by nearby campers prior to the fire fighters’ arrival, according to Skamania County Emergency Medical Services.
Nett died at the scene, the sheriff’s office said.
The Skamania County Sheriff’s Office is investigating what caused the crash.
