The Ledges

This is a scouting report for the Ledges, a creek-like feature on the Pocantico River.  It shows what is probably the minimal level for running it.  Paddlers can do 'laps' on this feature by eddying out at the bottom and walking a gravel trail back up.  Video with descriptions can be found at this link - https://youtu.be/gdXnnf4Sxeg

One thing to note: The 3.0 on the Croton River gauge should have risen to that level, not fallen.  The watershed area for the Pocantico is small.  It doesn't stay up for long after the heavy rains.  By the time that the Croton Falls to 3.0, the Pocantico has fallen much quicker.
