Squeezed The Subway into a weekend. 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. Footing was solid on the dry benches and a little slick near water lines. Short version: Do not trust parking to work out. Some trips stay w/ you.
