Backpacking into a basecamp, then summiting.

Hello everyone. I am planning on doing a snow route this upcoming week but want some help on where. I am getting really starting to backpack a lot and all my favorite snow routes are in non-wilderness areas where you can't really backpack to a base. My question is, is there a cool moderate to low steepness snow route, where I can backpack in from the trailhead, spend the night, summit, and then pack up and head to my car. I am super curious if there is anything like I am describing. If what I am saying is too good to be true, are there similar options. Thanks in advance and happy mountaineering!

Softshell Recomendations.

Hi all! I was hoping for some recommendations on softshells for my goal of hitting all 53 "official" 14ers here in Colorado. My last softshell wasn't good at all and I would love some recommendations. Looking for something windproof, water resistant, and hopefully something I can wear below freezing without more than 1 base and midlayer. A big thing is making sure it is pretty durable, considering I will probably will be scraping granite pretty often. I have been looking at the Rab VR summit but for sure not set on anything. Any and all help/experience would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

as title says, located in Denver, Colorado,PM me, it doesn’t hurt. Looking for a good deal so it doesn’t have to be a brand new version. Thanks in advance.
