Hello! Going to a show for the first time and considering taking my parents. For context, they are 65yo not not disabled in any way and remain an active life, however, definitely not thing to push them past their limits. Also, they are not fans of the band, we just like sharing moments together and this venue is beautiful. This is my first time going to a show so need some help. Couple questions:

1. is it just right off the bat a bad idea?

2. is there a possibility of us arriving early, enjoying the venue with the parents, and then them heading back to hotel before the show begins? Or do you need to have a ticket to have entry to entire Red rocks area ?

3. if we do decide to go through with it , seats would be around row 25. Any tips on maybe where to get dropped off by the uber, or anything else to minimize physical exertion.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I’m visiting Colorado this week (May 12 to 17) with my parents and wanted to make my way to Estes Park / RMNP, because I don’t know if I’ll ever be back in Colorado again (much less with my parents). Although they are older, they aren’t disabled in any way and still remain active. That being said, neither of us are hikers and I am not trying to push them past their limits, so I’m hoping to keep it to mainly driving and some light walking. So my question is,

Is it possible to just drive through RMNP with an occasional stop here in there? Is that still an enjoyable experience? If so, what would be the roads/stops most recommended? Bear Lake and Trail Ridge keep coming up, but I am not sure about availability of those spots at this time of year and due to last weeks storm. I do believe I’m going just before the ‘timed entry’ required dates, but if I’m wrong feel free to correct me.

Once again I appreciate any help. I come in here with zero knowledge or experience, so I’m intimidated amongst some of you pros with my questions lol so thanks in advance! Greetings from Texas!
