Hiked the Bar Trail up to Bar camp for an overnight stay. The next day on the way back down we took the route to summit Rocky Mountain. Weather was perfect and only minor patches of snow as we got close to 10k in elevation. The area has awesome views and was a great hike. The trail we took to Rocky Mountain went through an old forestry laboratory ( Experimental Forestry) with a number of building foundations and walks still present. Well worth the trek to see it.
