A blowdown
The snow did not start until 3,500 feet so I thought I had a good chance of reaching the summit but the snow on the ridge was deep and dodgy with possible tree wells everywhere. I turned back at 4,100 feet after I sunk to my thighs and had trouble pulling myself out.
There is one blow down about 1/4 to 1/2 mile past the horse camp on the trail that goes to the right. The first bridge in that area also is getting a bit scary, so I chose to pebble hop across the creek.
