Snow Trail snow-covered at times - Gear and expertise recommended

Well, Mt Baden Powell really put me in my place today.  The entire trail is snow covered and even with micro spikes, I struggled.  About a half mile to the summit, things really get interesting.  The trail gets lost in all the snow, so you have to trudge through whatever path you can find.   It was so windy at the summit, that I turned around immediately, forgoing my obligatory selfie. ????

  1. I was planning on trying next weekend! I have never done this hike before (have the gear ready for snow) but any tips on “learning” the trail before or ways to navigate / things to look out for? I’m getting a little nervous now lol!
