Fauna notes from the subway.
We went left fork trailhead to the lower subway section starting at 6:25 am. Cloud cover held until late morning and kept the slickrock from baking route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns.
Wildlife/nature notes: no major wildlife encounters, just tracks in wet sand.
Just show up ready.
