On the second day we returned to Bear Valley, but even though we had a reservation for 0800, we had to take the free shuttle bus as it was Saturday and the trail head parking was already full. This time we hiked to Mills Lake past a few waterfalls
The trail was in good condition with just a few snowy sections.
After the hike, we found out that the trail ridge road had just opened. This is the highest (12,183ft) paved road in the US. The road crosses these mountains
and has beautiful views
We hiked the Tundra Communities trail between 12100 and 12300 ft and were happy that it was not too hard. Looks like Sawako and I can handle this altitude at least.
Along the way we saw Elk and Sheep
Just a perfect day of hiking and driving in RMNP
