Went out there yesterday. The leaves were ankle deep in places and quite slippery. Be careful out there!
I had two wipeouts from the slipperiness and other people were reporting the same.
As an aside: I have always ridden shockabilly at the end because I assumed it was the more interesting/technical variation. This time around I rode the rock garden. After riding it once, it occured to me you guys may want to change the signs indicating the relative level of difficultly. I think the rock garden is quite a bit more difficult/technical than shockabilly in it's current eroded state. Might be worth warning people. Shockabilly never bothered me, but I was this ---><--- close to endoing on the rock garden.
