    I still have to do Lafayette or any Whites in winter. Is it mostly spikes or need to also bring snowshoes? Presidentials has been one of my favourite hikes so far.

      No postholing, thankfully. We had snowshoes on for the deep sections. Up here above treeline the rocks were well covered by a few inches of settled snow and ice. If I remember correctly, we were switching from snowshoes to microspikes in this picture.
