[cobirds] Re: RMNP Entrance Question

You can actually enter the park before 9:00am any day and enjoy any part of the park outside of the Bear Lake Road area. You do still have to pay the usual fees or have an America the Beautiful pass. We did this on June 3. I just looked and Old Fall River Road west of Endovalley is still closed, but Trail Ridge Road is open.

Honestly, it was not terribly difficult to get a ticket for the Bear Lake Road area if you login right at 5:00pm the night before on recreation.gov, and when we went it was pretty quiet outside of the upper Bear Lake Trailheads which was a pleasant surprise.

Good Luck!

Hello all, 

I was hoping to attempt to see the Ptarmigan that have been reported the last few weeks at RMNP. That said, we will be entering the park early to get there in time. I know there are new restrictions on timed entry. It looks like 9am is the earliest general park time, but 5am is the earliest for Bear Lake. If I purchase a day pass, can I still enter the park at 5am without a timed entry reservation? Has anyone had experience with this? Appreciate any insight.
