Quantified: The Subway breakdown.
- Route: Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side
- Weather: Cool morning air helped us move fast before the canyon warmed up.
- Trail: Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns.
- Water: Creek flow was moderate and easy to cross w/ poles.
- Crowds: crowded
Bottom line: Carry a small trash bag.
The kind of day that resets perspective.
