Description

"I-95" (Mile 2.19) - A series of rapids starts at the I-95 bridge.  Here, the river is split in two by a bridge pier supporting I-95.  The most common line is to stay left of the pier and just at the end of the pier is a slot that moves right and then left, eddying out below.  There is a nice surfing wave to the right of the pier, but it can be hard to get to at lower water levels or if there's wood, which tend to collect at that side.  With some effort, you can sneak behind the bridge pier to attain back up to the surfing wave.
