Wildcat Trailhead (Subway) Closed from 9/15/15 - 11/30/15
Just saw this on the Zion Canyoneering permits website (https://zionpermits.nps.gov/) and thought I would pass the info along for future Subway plans.
"Prescribed Fire may take place between 9/15-11/30/2015. During the prescribed fire, the Wildcat Canyon Trail (including the Subway and Trans Zion Hike)may be closed. Dates are weather dependent and may change"
Basically, don't plan on doing the Subway past September 15th of this year.●Canyoneering 'Canyon Conditions' @ www.candition.com

That same message was on there for the spring from March-May as well. So there is still a good chance that the trailhead will be open.

Basically, means it will likely be closed for 2-3 days sometime during the time period.
