Death Valley Natl. Pk. Darwin and Surprise Canyons Nov. 16-17, 2021 - John Morrow - 2021-12-10 Nov 16th we did the short hike to Dawrin Falls and relocated camp to Panamint Springs Campground for two nights. I went above the first falls to the second falls by staying low in the canyon and crossing the stream a couple times.  Then I scouted Digonnet's route, higher left looking up canyon, and stayed on that side to the 2nd falls.  Some Class 4 scrambling here.  Then Lori and it went even higher left looking up canyon to adjacent to near the top of the highest falls.
