Narrows[1] is a Halo 3 multiplayer map.
It was first discovered in the third Bungie Podcast of Summer 2007, and was listed as having a "very special weapon in the middle". It was further detailed in a Bungie Humpday Challenge as a long Forerunner outpost set in a snowy and cold environment, and was revealed to be the external bridge level featured in one of the Halo 3 video documentaries. It was known by the codename "Chill" during Spring 2007, and was discovered in the hexadecimal code of the Halo 3 Beta, and was later it was relabeled as "Long and Lean" [2]. However, it has been finally confirmed by IGN and Bungie Studios to be known as "Narrows".
Narrows is a symmetrical level, with two opposing bases, each with almost identical weapons in each base. The bases are connected by a Forerunner Causeway. A Man Cannon at back of each base propels the player to the opposing base on the other side of the canyon.If players are to enter opposing man cannons at roughly the same time they will collide in mid air and both fall to their death. Underneath the Forerunner bridge is another arcing bridge, and underneath that, a "lean" Energy Bridge.
The map also features a M41 Rocket Launcher, a Shotgun, a Needler, a Spiker, and a M7/Caseless Submachine Gun.
The map's design is similar to the outdoors bridges on the Halo: Combat Evolved campaign levels Assault on the Control Room, Two Betrayals and the multiplayer map Gephyrophobia
