Start at the Glacier Gorge parking lot trailhead (RMNP park pass required). Take the trail to Sky Pond. There are a few trail branches, so if you take a slightly different route, it’s OK because the elevation gain will be the same.

The clock stops when you catch a fish in Sky Pond. You can then enjoy fishing the Sky Pond, all the stuff you passed on the way up, and consider linking up to other lakes in the area.

There is plenty of fishing along the way in Icy Brook, The Loch, and Lake of Glass.
