I've done it, but it was the start of an 18-day trip, so my backpack weighed 85 pounds. It still wasn't too hard, since we took two days to get to the top. We went up from the east and then went down to the west to the upper Kern River basin.
One day up and back would be quite difficult. It's 22 miles and could take about 18 hours.
One night at base camp will make it much more enjoyable. Be prepared for altitude effects. Bring something for headaches.
