Plant observations along The Subway: We went Out-and-back through Left Fork from Wildcat Canyon side starting at 4:45 AM. Cool morning air helped us move fast before the canyon warmed up. Route finding was straightforward if we stayed on cairns and creek turns. Wildlife/nature notes: Only saw small lizards and birds near warm rock shelves. Still thinking about this one.
