The Subway at dusk hits different.
We went Left Fork trailhead to the lower Subway section starting at 6:50 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.
Short version: Phone battery backup.
Still thinking about this one.
