How far down was the tree? I know a couple of FJ guys who were down there a few weeks ago and made it to a down tree but I think they found a quick bypass
 
Did the tree have any bark? It almost looks like it was put there intentionally.
 
I'm gonna say not intentionally. It looks as if it just crumbled under the snows weight. It was shattered on the impact side, as if it was rotten. I really didn't care, it was more or less in our way and made the trip UP very interesting. Pushing snow downhill is great fun, but plowing uphill just is down right scary at times.

The snow depth was less there when being compared at the top 5-10 miles back. Thinking (with knowing that) just made the trip back mentally challenging.

When I broke the snow at the top, took a breather, I thought to myself, "I want more, that hill climb was intense."
 
Rob, can you see that I got a picture of the impact for your fender's new dent? 2nd to last picture. R/F of Jeep...you can see a little crinkle sensation on the fender in front of the tire.
 
Didnt air down, just Chained up the front of both rigs, Airing down was not worth it at the time, now, i kept that in mind while we were comin up, 4lo and airdown to 5-10psi. but we got lucky.

I wanna go back!
