Our party of three found the trail from the HPIC well packed. Beyond Avalanche Camps, it was softly broken, but by the time we descended, skiers had packed it nicely. We were turned back at the false summit by fierce winds, kicking up blowing, blinding snow. We could not see anything at times, including a trail, so we retreated. On the descent, at the intersection just past Lake Arnold, we glanced to the right and noted that the trail to Feldspar, etc, was recently broken. We wore snowshoes all day.
Hike was actually 12/30. I can't seem to edit the date. Sorry.
