Squeezed The Subway into a weekend. We went Left Fork approach w/ a quick weather check at dawn starting at 5:10 AM. Cloud cover held until late morning and kept the slickrock from baking. Rock steps were stable, w/ a few muddy pockets by the creek. TLDR: Wave at other hikers. Preparation is everything.
