Dad, Melissa, Laura, Miranda
We parked at Bear Lake TH, then took the bus from Cub Lake TH back up to Bear Lake. Dad thought the hike would be mostly downhill and that we could run most of it. WRONG. Plus the views were nothing great. Saw some pretty wildflowers and some of the areas that were in the forest fire from a few years ago. Not a do over hike.

Waiting for a ride. RMNP has a great shuttle system, which works well for one way hikes and getting a ride back to your vehicle. |
