Have fished there often. I can point you in the right direction depending on how much you want to hike. I can clue you in more off line as this is a public forum. I would advise taking an asprin every day 2-3 days before you leave as this will help avoid altitude sickness. Also drink plenty of water and gatorade every day and limit your cofee and soda the first couple days again to minimize effects of altitude.
As for flys that time of year make sure you have plenty of sz16 red quills,...

RMNP - Yes and I hear the water can be cold.
Cheeseman Canyon is no good either.
Why not go to Europe while your Dollars are worth much (no Sunoco's though).

All of you guys should be ashamed of yourselves! Andre asked a very serious question and you all just toy with him, knowing his precarious emotional condition, without concern. Shame!!

Andre;
First off don't sweat the ground squirrel/bubonic plague factor too much. You can't get the disease from the squirrels unless you get bitten by fleas that first fed on infected squirrel blood. Bottom line.......keep an eye on the squirrels but don't let the little cuties...

No experience in RMNP but I can give one piece of advise that's universal , "cast the fly in the water".
