Fauna notes from The Subway. We went Left Fork trailhead to the lower Subway section starting at 4:45 AM. Wind stayed light, which made the river sections easier to handle. Footing was solid on the dry benches and a little slick near water lines. Wildlife/nature notes: Only saw small lizards and birds near warm rock shelves. Still thinking ~ this one.
