In the olden days that's what everyone used to do. Depends on the snow pack. You have 3/4 bailout /resupply spots if it starts to feel like too much. I comfortably did 24 miles a day from Kennedy Meadows to Independence. Then slowed a bit But did not have much snow either time. I vaguely remember most folks thought Kennedy to VVR was a 10 to 12 day trip. But that's when packs were heavier. I resupplied the first trip in Independence. It took 6 1/2 days to go Independence to Tuolumne. I'm a slow hiker
