I will be traveling to RMNP for the first time in a few weeks. I’ll be expecting to get up to the park mid day on a Saturday, and have reservations for the bear lake corridor at 2- 4 pm.

I’d prefer not having to take a shuttle at park and ride- what is the parking situation like after 2 pm on Saturday afternoons at the Bear Lake trailhead?

Any easy hike recommendations for travelers coming from sea level? We will be staying in Denver about a day and a half before we head to RMNP.
