It isn't clear from Digonett's book as to what
it takes to go from the end of the First Narrows
in Lower Marble Canyon to the Second Narrows.
He mentions a "giant quartz monzonite chockstone"
but gives no indication of what it takes to get
past it. I was thinking of doing a backpacking
trip up Lower Marble Canyon and was wondering what
the climbing/technical difficulty was along the
canyon - especially at the above mentioned
chockstone.
