Surprise! It's Winter!
I think I was a day late checking out Vesper Peak :) I hiked up 2mi and then had to turn around due to inability to navigate. I read it's scrambly around mile 2 and with the snow coverage I couldn't decipher the trail whatsoever beyond that point.
Other than that, drive there is beautiful! Any car can make it to the trailhead.
Trail is wet and there are water crossings that won't keep your feet dry but, you get soaking wet in the snow & slush further up anyways!

Always a hard/good call to turn around, but appreciate the conditions report (snow!!) and glad you made the safe call.
