My family - my husband, myself, and our 19 month toddler - have planned to go to RMNP from the 18th to 20th. Unfortunately the weather is forecasted to be cold & rainy (30-40 degrees.) How can we make the most of this less than ideal weather?

We were really looking forward to hiking & spotting animals. Our original plan was to "easy" hikes that Bear Lake, Lily Lake, & Sprague Lake. Can we expect wildlife in the weather conditions? Should we change plans & do different trails?

If it matters, we're staying in Estes Park. We're still planning on seeing RMNP & bundling up the kid, but we'd love any advice!
