The sweet narrows starts off with two shorts drops of 20ft or so and some light down climbing before arriving at the big boy. Either a tricky down climb or short 10ft rappel gets you to a deadman anchor for the freaking awesome 160ft angled rappel down a curved chute which drops you into a beautiful section of the canyon. 
Just below the big falls, a slick down climb put you at a short 10ft waterfall rappel and just around the corner is another optional rappel or slick down climb and/or jump in a pool. Just around the corner from that is a slick 50ft double drop waterfall rappel with some more down climbing past that. We found a nice sunny place to warm up and take a lunch break down in there while soaking in the amazing canyon views & sunshine. 
After that we hit a 50ft rappel #7 around a huge chockstone down a chute into a pool with a short drop below that with rappel #8 just beyond that, which was a 25ft slick falls. The technical section ended soon afterwards and it got thickly vegetated real fast, but we dropped our gear and hiked up a side drainage on the left back up to the ridge and trail above.
