Beehive Basin Trailhead

A very popular hike these days, get there early to get parking. The road is windy, poorly maintained and steep. If there is any kind of weather, best if its 4WD. Go in when the wildflowers are in bloom. Breath taking views, meadows and lakes the whole way up. If the snow melt is on and it looks like there's blood in the snow... Don't be alarmed. I was when I first saw it. We ended up getting back and finding out later that it is Red Algae aka High altitude algae. this natural phenom is also found in the alps!
