hi everyone! I plan on doing the Grand Loop in Rocky Mountain National Park this summer. I am a pretty experienced hiker. When is a good time to go? My ideal time would be the beginning of June, but if that is a bad time i want to hold out. Any other advice would be great! thanks!!

No way could you do this beginning of June. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CE3MXajWNg

Late July to early August is a reasonable time. If you asked a park ranger they'd say never.
