There's a big difference between day hiking and backpacking......weight.

My 19 year old daughter and I have been camping and hiking in Yosemite each summer for the past 13 years. We are now considering an actual backpacking trip but since neither of us has ever done more than day hikes that end back to our comfy little trailer in the valley, we are a little hesitant to head out on our own. Does a trip between Tuolumne Meadows and Reds Meadow along the JMT sound reasonable? We have done the Panorama Trail, Mist Trail to Nevada Falls, top of Yosemite Falls, 4 Mile Trail all without problem but overnight in the wilderness is a completely different thing. I know it is 30 miles so I was thinking 2 nights out? I have been doing lots of reading in terms of gear needed, permits, trail etiquette, etc hoping to educate myself but with all the experts around here I would love some input.

The striker on my waterproof matches crapped out on the last day. (I'd 'lightened' my load by leaving the BIC long handled lighter at home).
