I'd also love to get out there one year. Having visited a famous nearby canyon and wandered around in the desert I know that the scale of these things can never be contained by a monitor or magazine page.

I'd also love to take my bike and ride some of the drops and booters on the lower slopes. It's not all completely mental.

Yes great photos.

I love the spectacle, and recognise it's going to evolve, but I still can't get over the fact they're allowed to go into a National Park and hack the crap out of the rock, build drops and stack cement bags all over the place.

It would be good to go there, but I might need a "whoop" filter or it could get irritating.

If you don't like being around people while they're having fun just stay at home.

If went there I'd probably just stick to the blues, maybe try a red after a few looseners....
