Engine failure
I agree it is probably carb ice & a remelt situation. My 150 hp 172M
will actually ice up to a limit quite quickly under the right conditions. Note that OP probably had a very low power approach over his obstacle in which case there would be little heat available for the carb heat stove. Those who say Lycomings won't ice up just haven't encountered the right conditions - yet.
