Trench was still in for first couple miles. Beyond that, it was wind blown. Commenced trail breaking in snowshoes to ~13,500. Stashed em and booted up last 900 feet to summit. On descent, my tracks were wind blown all the way to tree line. With incoming storm, suspect any tracks above tree line nonexistent and below tree line, perhaps first couple miles will remain depending on snow totals. I would also suspect that one would no longer be able to make it all the way to N. Cottonwood Creek.
