The Subway at dusk hits different.
We went Left Fork approach with a quick weather check at dawn starting at 6:00 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.
Light was best in the first two hours.
Ratings: 5 overall, 5 difficulty, 4 scenery.
Bottom line: Extra socks change everything.
Days like this are why I hike.
