Canyoneering: The Subway (Top Down), Zion, Utah

April 24th, 2017.

Still in Zion, our next outing was the top down canyoneering route of the Subway. This was another very beautiful canyon. It's also really beginner friendly for anyone wanting to try canyoneering for the first time. Back then we had no problem getting permits. But since hikers can access to lower section of this canyon, permits have now unfortunately become very hard to get. I highly recommend the top down canyoneering route over the bottom up hiking route to anyone with even the most basic skills. It's so much better than simply hiking up from the bottom.

Technically the official name for this canyon is the Left Fork of North Creek, but everyone knows it as The Subway.
