Cost breakdown for the subway. We went left fork trailhead to the lower subway section starting at 6:00 am. Wind stayed light, which made the river sections easier to handle. Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns. Quick scores: overall=5, difficulty=3, views=5 just show up ready.
