I like the "twin sisters" as well on the east side. Good trail, some scrambling above treeline at the end, nice views of Longs peak from the summit. Is a more popular trail, is outside of RMNP. All the other suggestions are great.

We went from Bear Lake to Granby years back. Simply put, it's incredible. Get a backcountry permit to camp up near Lake Nanita. Bring your fishing rod. You won't be sorry you did.
