I don't disagree that full suspension is best for really rough terrain, but I was gleaning from the original post that his technical single-track use would be a very minor percentage of his riding. In that case I figure it doesn't make sense to pay the extra bucks and lug the extra weight (kinda like having AWD but needing it four days a year).
And if you haven't tried one, check out a shock-post. I have a USE and I tell ya' it's great!

p.s. Sounds like a nice trip in the San Juans
