For the month of August, I decided to spice up the regular NH48 and include the additional 24 Trailwrights' peaks. Further--because I like numbers and am weird--I climbed them all as "6-packs" in 12 separate days. Some of these combos were pretty straight forward and made sense--Carters, Hight, and Lethe for instance. Other days did NOT make sense and required a bit more effort--Cabot, Waumbek, Moriah, and the Wildcats for example! August 21--the 3 Twins, Galehead, Garfield, and Owls Head--was the hardest day. Doing the peaks with this little twist proved to be a fun challenge! 
Note that I am aware of the TW "one peak per hike rule" and long ago did the peaks that way, in winter and non. I am NOT aware of this ever having been done before... then again, not sure anyone would want to repeat it!
