Greetings Crysthgr, I am going to assume you are going to enter the park from the east and exit on the west. The park is very, very crowded Friday, Saturday and Sunday and parking is a major pain. So here is a Monday through Thursday idea. You can get to 4 waterfalls with the following strategy. You must get into the park by 7:00 AM. This will get you a parking space at Glacier Gorge parking. There is a short Hike up to Alberta Falls that will take you about 1 to 1.5 hours round trip. From Alberta Falls you will drive to the Alluvial Fan in Endo Valley. There is a waterfall at the mouth of Roaring Valley where the Roaring River comes out above the fan. Next you drive up Old Fall River Road (dirt, one way up - once you start you must go to the top) to Chasm Falls (1.5 miles with a 200 foot walk to the falls). Then you drive to the West Side and leave the park through the Kawuneeche entrance. Drive to Grand Lake and take the road to the east end of the lake. There is a very short trail to Adams Falls (not the best falls of the four). This itinerary should use up all 5 hours. If you are entering and leaving from the east side, then drive up Old Fall River Road, skip the west side and come back down the paved road to Estes Park. That will get you three falls. Let me know if you have any additional questions. I work in the park at the Moraine Park Discovery Center. Have a good one. Cheers, Rich
