Description

Just before the box culverts passing under Plainfield Avenue, there is a short 'hydraulic jump'.

You'll need to be charging either left or right, to avoid head-on piton into the center divider of the box culvert.

While a wave/hole may form here (at some flows), the presence of the center divider barely a boat-length downstream largely makes any attempt to play here unlikely and inadvisable.
