That's true for the Cascades and Olympics, too. Much higher than normal snowpack (not quite as high as California), and considerable trail damage, a lot of which will probably not get fixed this year. No dead trees here, but lots of high winds, rainfall, ice storms.

Even low-level trails in our Columbia River Gorge are snowed/iced in, still. The cold air settles in there, causing lots of snow and freezing rain, and this year it hasn't yet left!
