Quality over speed on The Subway. We went Left Fork approach w/ a quick weather check at dawn starting at 6:50 AM wind stayed light, which made the river sections easier to handle rock steps were stable, w/ a few muddy pockets by the creek. Overall 4/5 difficulty 3/5. Scenery 4/5. Worth every bit of effort.
