The Subway was a side trip off the main route. We went Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side starting at 5:35 AM. Cloud cover held until late morning and kept the slickrock from baking. Footing was solid on the dry benches and a little slick near water lines. Short version: Wave at other hikers. That is the summary.
