I was in Utah last week...spent a few days hiking around Zion Canyon with Heather, my wife.
Before we got there...a quick stop in St. George Utah and a look at this beautiful building, the LDS temple...very very white - had no plans to go see it...but the way it stuck out against the blue sky...very impressive.
Then it was off to Springdale, Zion, and the Virgin river.
While I was down there...staying in Springdale..I was only about 25k away from one of my favorite places to ride....Gooseberry Mesa
Yes, that is a Turner Sultan 29r with the DW link. How did it perform? I loved it...very very well. The 120 mil fork made it a very tall ride, causing me to be concerned with how it would perform. No issues. I have ridden this trail a couple times before, the most recent time was 3 years ago on a Yeti 575 with a fox 130. This bike - for me, was better suited. Those big wheels, in combination with the front travel sailed over almost everything.
