I couldnt get a timed entry permit. Would the road be open to drive through and find parking if i arrive around 4;30 am?

Timed entry rules 1. Use Recreation.gov app to get a slot. Everyday at 5PM they open new slots for next day. They hold 20% passes off next day. So try to ensure you have best internet connection 2. Free entry to Rocky Mountain before 9AM or after 3PM for one car. Try to go there atleast by 8:15AM or 2:15 PM if not you won't make it 3.Free entry for Bare lakes is before 5AM or after 6PM.

Yes. Open 24/7 but trying to curb the peak times. It would honestly be better at that time with less people. Plus, sunrise 😊

When I was there two weeks ago, we drove through @ 8 and parked. But, at that time there was feet of packed snow around the lake and at times it was hard to see across the lake.
