Timed it for golden hour on The Subway.
We went Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side starting at 5:10 AM. Cloud cover held until late morning and kept the slickrock from baking. Rock steps were stable, with a few muddy pockets by the creek.
Soft overcast made for even exposure all day.
Quick scores: overall=4, difficulty=5, views=4
Miles are earned, not given.
Quick notes:
- Carry a small trash bag.
- Slow down on muddy sections.
- Poles help more than you think.
- Tape hot spots before they blister.
- Pack a dry layer.
