Well, this hike is not good to talk about time, because the person I went with had complications. What I will say is that a few summers ago, an ole' timer on the trail told me that winter hiking was easier than summer hiking. I did not believe him. However, last winter I started hiking, and I have to agree, that hiking in the winter is easier. Regarding times, my winter hikes are similar to my summer hikes, in that I move between 2-3mph.
