Some guidance for anyone planning 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. Key considerations: Start earlier than you think. Worth every bit of effort.
