its not steep stuff, its technical. You'll need something you're happy to pedal. Nowhere in Moab or Fruita really requires anything more than 5 inches of travel, and slickrock is a lot better on an XC bike than a trail bike; the trail is so smooth that suspension isnt needed, and some of the climbs are amazingly steep!
