Dog beta for The Subway. We went Left Fork trailhead to the lower Subway section starting at 4:45 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. Bottom line: Phone battery backup. Would do again in a heartbeat.
