Note, this is an active quarry during the day.

Too much rain, we’re cancelling this one. Sorry.

Keep an eye out for a ride Wednesday or Thursday depending on weather and ride lead availability.

That is a good call. The rock at Evil Birch (and there are a billion of them) is not grippy like the rock you find at Whopper or Fight. It is generally smooth and very slick when wet. A ride there tonight would definitely up the difficulty level of an already difficult trail (albeit one of my favorites)
