define your experience and equipment you mention you have please!

unless you have real experience in back country snow travel and have the appropriate equipment like crampons, ice axe, bivy, tent, etc, it is not advisable to do a winter ascent.

consider the climb during the off season closer to the opening of the official climbing season. less people to contend with and a much safer option.
