Solo on The Subway. Just me and the trail. We went Left Fork trailhead to the lower Subway section starting at 4:45 AM. Wind stayed light, which made the river sections easier to handle. Footing was solid on the dry benches and a little slick near water lines. The kind of day that resets perspective.
