Most of the Park is on a Plateau at around 8,000 feet. Most of the visitors are there in the summer months. The park is loved to death in summer. The elk rut starts around Sept 17-18. It is the perfect time to be there for the fall colors and active wildlife. My other favorite time is late May early June for all the babies. Take your kids out of school if you have to. It will be a totallly different trip.
