Besides the Osceolas, are there any hikes that can bag two 4K peaks in one day?

Franconia Ridge trail!

Best hike in the Whites I think. Just don't don on a busy day - the traffic can be awful.

We hope to do Adams, Jefferson and Madison as an overnighter in July. We are looking at the Valley Way tent site or The Perch to stay at for a couple nights. Last I read the Valley Way was not open so it looks like it's The Perch.

Denied!! Was planning on heading up to the Whites this weekend but my buddy bailed out. Still got it on my mind so I might just head up there solo this time.
