Timeline and stats from The Subway:
Route: Left Fork approach w/ a quick weather check at dawn. Weather: Cloud cover held until late morning and kept the slickrock from baking.. Trail: Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns.. Water: Water depth changed by section but never forced a full stop.. Crowds: crowded.
Do your homework first.
