I was excited because this was going to be my first time canyoneering for work. I was going to get to go through the Subway, which I knew was pretty neat because of all of the questions I was getting about it at the desk. I heard it was supposed to be cold, but I was ready for it even if it was cold. Annette wasn't thrilled about the cold. When it came down to it, our trip ended up being delayed enough that we decided we were just going to hike up from the bottom. I was disappointed, but I knew that I would have other chances to come down from the top during the summer. It started on the rim, where we found a down tree on the path, which Annette and I worked hard to clear. It took a good 10-15 minutes to get this huge tree off of the path. The trail went down a steep hill, where Annette told me a story of a recovery of a person who actually died coming up that hill. Then 
we hit the creek. We brought booties because we were going to cross the creek a lot. The water was chilly and it would have been very chilly for us to be sw
imming in above. I just soaked it all in as we got closer and closer to the Subway. There was a lot of water and it was really roaring through the area close to the Subway. Finally we were there and then we had to turn around. It was 
incredible to see this enclosed space that looked sort of like a Subway tunnel with all the varieties of colors. The rocks were really slick because of all the water. I ended up biffing hard in the Subway area. I slipped and fell hard on m
y elbow. Not only did I get soaked, but I thought for a second I could have broke my arm it was such a hard fall. The Subway was cool, but I really liked all the water and formations around the Subway just as much. We followed the creek back down, taking a totally different trail than the way up because there is so much human traffic through there. I thought that they should just make a trail to reduce the amount of damage that all the social trailing was doing. We made our way up the big hill and our Subway day was over. It was a neat hike that I wouldn't mind doing again and again and again and again.
