This is considered one of the better 14ers to do in the winter, but it will still be a difficult hike.  Snowshoes and spikes will be required and be prepared for extreme cold and wind.  This was originally scheduled for Feb 25, but high winds caused it to be postponed until March 5th.   The alternative hike in case weather still does not cooperate is Coulson Gulch Trail near Lyons.
