A snow drift.

Noun

snow drift ‎(plural snow drifts)

1. An accumulation of snow caused by wind currents, typically much deeper and higher than the depth of snow that fell directly.

   We had two feet of snow fall, two days ago, but when I drove off the road about five hundred yards into the forest (thinking I was still on the road) I lost my car in a twelve-foot-deep snow drift.
