The Subway FKT attempt? Not quite, but moved well.
We went Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side starting at 4:45 AM. Wind stayed light, which made the river sections easier to handle. Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns.
Overall 5/5. Difficulty 3/5. Scenery 4/5.
Questions welcome.
