Description

Short rapid with good surf wave with eddy service just below bridge. You need a Croton parking pass to park at Black Rock Park for park and play though hard to say how often they check. Easy carry up left. 

Surf wave below Quaker Bridge. Nice eddy. Gentle hole below 3 ft, wave like above. Can be very nice. It pulses around 4.5 ft-4.6 ft but is surfable, but loses eddy service around 3.7 feet, though some strategically moved rocks might fix that.
