The form of matter in galaxy haloes inferred from dynamical studies (i.e., rotation curves) remains unknown. We propose to image four bright local edge-on spiral galaxies with IRAC to detect these haloes and (if possible) characterize the distribution of halo mass. IRAC observations will be at least an order of magnitude more sensitive than previous attempts to measure flux from galaxy haloes. Combining images from all four IRAC bands also provides a potential means of discriminating among possible constituents of the dark matter.
