Description
You'll notice Baldwin Station, a restaurant built on the edge of the train tracks, dead ahead on river left as the rapid starts. Outdoor dining in the summertime usually provides a small audience in case you decide to crash and burn. The rapid starts center and work left and back to center and eddy out at the bottom. But you're not done. The rapid resumes under the Main Street, Sykesville Bridge. For this second half, start in the center and dodge rocks - favor the center and right sides. Avoid the left side, as there are pinning opportunities on the far left at the bottom of the rapid. Eddy at the bottom.
