Done The Subway a few times now. Here is the latest.
We went Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side starting at 5:35 AM. Cool morning air helped us move fast before the canyon warmed up. Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns.
Overall 5/5. Difficulty 3/5. Scenery 5/5.
The kind of day that resets perspective.
