Date Ridden: 03/03/2025  -  brian of gastonia, nc Route Taken: all except devils drop. Opinions: some good optional singletrack. main trail fast and fun. short climbs, roots and rocks. harder than catawba but interestingly fun. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/28/2010  -  Michael of Indian Land, SC Route Taken: All options that I could find. Opinions: I've riddeen this trial on and off for about 11 years. I recently took a 3 year break from it since it's a 45 min. drive from my house. I remember enjoying it a lot, but was dissapointed this past ride. Some of the steep sections are very washed and tricky, the twisty woods sections were boring, and I cleared out 100+ spiderwebs. The only other people I saw out there were guys on big hit bikes. It definitely is the best trail around for natural and manmade jumps, but compared to other area trails, i rank it low on the cross-country scale...especially after paying $3. Maybe Sherman Branch has spoiled me too much?? Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 07/10/2010  -  Tj of charlotte, nc Route Taken: whole thing Opinions: Fun trail. Most of the options are fun; some of them are tight slow single track (not my style) but the rest are fun with drops, jumps, etc. Devils drop is just a big rooty hill but its a thriller if you've got the guts. Gravity Cavity is pretty sweet. I highly suggest this trial to anyone. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 05/08/2010  -  Robert of Huntersville, NC Route Taken: All options except Devil's drop. Opinions: What a great trail. With all the options it makes for a great ride. They just added another section to this trail after the vortex that just makes this trail one of the best in the area. You better save up some energy to get up the last option... It's a rock filled goat climb. Have fun. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 04/04/2010  -  Juice of Concord, NC Route Taken: ALL Opinions: PT is where it's at. Challenging, demanding, test your inner fortitude out here as often as you'd like. Devils Drop lived up to it's name, the Christmas Single Track was great, options galore.....clip in and hold on....if you can Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 09/24/2009  -  Ramses of Wesley Chappel, nc Route Taken: Mostly all options. Computer read 9.5 miles and missed out on Devils Drop. Opinions: Nice trail, very twitchy not to much speed can be carried thru here, or maybe I was just to tired. I was a bit confused with all the signage pointing in every direction but luckily rode with someone who was familiar with the trail. Otherwise who knows.. AS far as trails go it is definately more challenging than most, especially if you are looking for jumps and some pretty cool freeride stuff. Not to many climbs until the end of it, most climbs are transitional, meaning you will be climbing lightly most of the time then come down only to start climbing lightly again until the last portion of trail that really makes you work for it. Overall awesome trail Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 09/10/2009  -  Matt of Matthews, NC Route Taken: Everything Opinions: Very fun place to ride. Devils drop is not as bad as it looks from the top. Gravity Cavity has a nice hip that is very fun to jump. Try to hit the short drop that is loaded with rocks, it is probably the most challenging aspect of the trail (other than the trials section if you can do it). Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/20/2009  -  RajPlt of Concord, NC Route Taken: All Except Devils Drop Opinions: This is my favorite local trail. If you can ride this trail comfortably then you can handle most of what this area has to offer. It doesn't let you flow through quickly like Sherman, but it keeps you working over the roots to attempt to keep momentum. After all trails like this is why you spend the money on a nice bike in the first place. The pump area and obstacles are great. The "Shortcut if You Can," toward the end was modified a few weeks back with carpet. It is easier to get up the hill and I guess it helps with the soil erosion that was plagueing that area before. There is a new berm toward the end of the single track area (after Devil's Drop and before the Luge) that flows really nicely. The Luge is a great little downhill area with some OK berms to keep your speed up. They have added some packed gravel randomly throughout the trail for some good jumps. The seesaw and raised platform about halfway through are fun and not as daunting as you may think at first glimpse. Gravity Cavity is a blast and my favorite part. Definately worth $3 to ride and don't be a jerk and skimp on the family that takes care of this for us to enjoy. Ride safe and have a blast on this one. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 04/11/2009  -  Duke of Midland, NC Route Taken: All except devils drop. Opinions: Good exercise, the so called 'short cut' is very very very difficult if you try it after rain! Infact I dont think its possible. If you can do it after a rain storm, let me see it so i can shake your hand. Overall, fun trail. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 03/14/2009  -  Kevin of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Main loop, only several of the options Opinions: I'd definitely classify myself as an intermediate rider. I wasn't pleased with Poplar Tent. We had a moderate rain over four days prior (with sun and warm weather each day afterwards) and the trails were still soaking wet, especially many of the options. I don't know why, but this trail refuses to dry out when other trails in the area are perfect. I found the markers to be a bit ambiguous. Hard to stick on the main loop. Not enough flow in the entire system. Good for some technical parts and some killer climbs. Just not a trail that you have too much fun on. Great trail for those who love obstacles. They have some great rocks, see-saw, jumps, etc. Just not nearly my favorite in the Charlotte area. I doubt I'll give them another try. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 11/26/2008  -  Sean of Matthews, NC Route Taken: Poplar Tent Opinions: Loved this ride! Great mix of technical sections and obstacles. Great jumps and drops. Didn't do too much of the man-made stuff but he trail was pretty clear and well marked. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 11/09/2008  -  malamute man of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Tried to hit everything. Opinions: I would have to say the best trail around here. Had a little of everything steap drops, man made features, and jumps. Some of the downhill sections need to be opened up. Don't be scared to make them wider. I know people will go faster but thats the point. Hit devils drop I was expecting a real drop but just a steap section. Pushed back up and was able to get some air off one of the roots. Overall worth the trip out there. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 09/09/2008  -  Dylan Phifer of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: All of them. Opinions: This is the best trail I've been on. I reccomend this to anybody willing to have a great time. Deffinetly worth the $3. Has lots of obsticles, jumps, and rocks. Has steep hills, big rocks, bridges and trial like obsticles. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/02/2008  -  vince3 of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: All of it. Opinions: Trail is good for where we are. If you've ever ridden outside of flat Charlotte you know it's a very easy trail however it's the only thing close to technical around. Everything around the area is so groomed that it's nice to feel some bumps. I see a lot of people w/ downhill rigs out there? There is nothing at Poplar that a simple hardtail can't handle. Leave the downhill bike at home for this one or get your money back if you bought it to ride only trails in the Charlotte area. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 06/29/2008  -  Daniel of Charlotte, North Carolina Route Taken: Main loop, Devils Drop, some of the option trails Opinions: Nice setup. After riding the Sherman for a few weeks I ventured out to this trail. Wow! This trail has everything and more. I thought it might get confusing with all the trails inside and around the main loop, but the red arrows show you the way. It's the most technical trail I've ridden. Some of the option trails have nice "surprises". Devils Drop looked quite intimidatiing at first, but I had to try it...Success! I'll be back and I'm bringing some friends. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 06/10/2008  -  Ryan of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Main loop and about half the options. Devils Drop :O Opinions: Awesome trail! Definitely a bit more fiesty than Catawba and more technical with shorter but steeper climbs, lots or roots and rocks and lots of obstacles. Most of the hairy stuff have "opt out" routes so you can ride it progressively. I love this trail :) but I definitely busted my tail on devil's drop. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 05/07/2008  -  roadpig of charlotte, nc Route Taken: All options Opinions: I havent ridden out here in a couple of years, had heard about all of the improvements , I was not disapointed but what happened to the pig trail ? Am I blind or did it get covered up by the logging? Still a first rate trail! Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 04/09/2008  -  Dan of charlotte, nc Route Taken: All different kinds and options Opinions: This is a great trail worth the $3, do all the options trust me. Also be careful of devils drop. I would not say this is the hardest trail but it is up there if you do the options. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 03/22/2008  -  MAPMAN of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Main Loop with Devil's drop and some extras. Opinions: If you like being beaten to death on an unmaintained trail then this is for you. It has to be the roughest most technical trail in Charlotte with DANGEROUS obstacles. You ride up a bridge expecting to just ride back down, but NO, there's a 5 foot drop off. I'd suggest riding the entire loop before you try anything. It's very unpredicable. I bet there's more broken bones on this trail than any in Charlotte. Also, if it's rained within the past 72 hours forget about it. It was extremely muddy if you ventured off the main trail and it hasn't rained in 48 hours. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 03/06/2008  -  MaestroRider of Concord, NC Route Taken: All of the main trail, options and obsticles(bridge drops, skinnys, teeter totter, jumps and etc.) Opinions: The Andrews have really hooked this place up! Lots of hard work has paid off. I started riding here 8yrs ago and things have definetly improved. Poplar gives you really fun techy stuff like the quick Vortex, Devils Drop,Gravity Cavity, fun rock gardens,the little down hill spine next to the creek, fun rocky rooted switch back climbs and fun little bridge drops and throw in a couple of skinnys. They have recently put in a small Teeter Toter and a few other little bridge drops. In comparison to other local rides, this is hands down the funnest! If you like this type of riding it is a ton of fun. If you are a begginer and first timer probably be walking alot. Heck you can even play around out in the front with the 2-4 ft. singles and doubles. I hope they continue to add more fun obsticles and options. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 11/04/2007  -  Dean of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: All Opinions: Hey, I appreciate all the hard work and sweat equity that has been put into the trail lately. My one request is to take it easy on going too far. Tent has always offered some of the best rugged riding around town. It gives the area the variety from many of the over engineered, groomed trails. Keep Tent safe, but don't turn it into another "made for single-speed, hardtail, and/or 29er only" trail. Keep Tent a lttle wild, at least the optionals. Variety is the spice of Charlotte. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 11/02/2007  -  Chad of Concord, NC Route Taken: Main trail and most optionals Opinions: Very good trail system overall. I have ridden most of what the Charlotte area has to offer and this is by far the best variety. I definately appreciate the work that has been/is being done on the trail, but please leave in some of the stuff to keep it challenging. Rocks, roots and stumps is why I bought a full suspension! If your looking for great variety this is your place, do forget your $3 bucks........ Difficulty: Trail Rating:

BUT NOT NOW. Many thanks to the guys who cleaned/cleared and even added some cool features to the already great trail. Head back soon as it is in great condition. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/28/2007  -  Plezsnow of Fort Mill, SC Route Taken: Main loop, plus a couple options, loved Devils drop! Opinions: Ive ridden most local trails over the past year, and we have an awesome trail system here in the Carolinas, this place wins for most extreme...tons of obstacles, drops, jumps and varied terrain, well worth the $3 if you want some "extreme". Trails are confusing, but marked VERY well, and map helps. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

A lot of Dif. things to keep you busy/interested. My high school has recently started a MTN biking club which the club rides there at least once a week.

Date Ridden: 02/20/2007  -  Mike of Peace Dale, Rhode Island Route Taken: All. Opinions: Fun trails, a few nice stunts and jumps. Trail names are a bit misleading: "Tuff" trails aren't and "Obstacle" trail doesn't have any. Definitely worth riding, but doesn't have as nice of flow as Catawba. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 01/27/2007  -  OB1 of Mooresville, NC Route Taken: main, plus a couple options. Opinions: I've only ridden a dozen or so trails in NC. But this is by far the most well rounded, fun ride around so far! Option after option will keep your ride fresh and exciting. There are even a few tough obsticals and drops for the deranged. If you aren't in good shape, don't plan on riding EVERYTHING in one day. This place deserves many trips out! Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 10/31/2006  -  Rob of Shelby, NC Route Taken: Every option I could find. And stoped at all freeride stuff to give it a try. Esp the Devil's drop and gravity pit. Opinions: Very good trail. SO many options it can get alittle confusing but great signage helps that. There is soo much to choose from. Open double track to tight single track. As well as some great drops and jumps and a gravity pit to play around on. I think I saw where the others were injuryed. Not really all that tech just unexpected I geuss. Same thing happened to me on Jungle 2 where I tried to roll what I should have droped. Part of the fun of riding a trail for the first time I geuss. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 09/23/2006  -  PackaDay of Concord, NC Route Taken: Main trail/Gravity and Pig's Trail(optional) Opinions: This trail is my home trail,(meaning it's the one I learned to Mtnbike on, and I live 10 min away) I have ridden everything there and it's great, but it is not a begginers trail!!! Pay attention when riding, because some parts have erosion! There were 3 very serious wrecks(2 at least hospital bound) the last day I rode, by very skilled riders. Maybe, it was just a bad day, because the trails aren't scary or dangerous unless you don't pay attention. Like my friend says, mtn biking is a controlled fall. But this trail is SUPER fun and does have alot of great options for cross country and free riders from intermediate and plus. Sign in, wear a helmut, ride with a friend and go to town Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 09/07/2006  -  Tim of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Main Trail, no options Opinions: If you enjoy fully exposed roots (sometimes a 12" dropoff downhill), large rocks and loose soil on tight turns, this is the trail for you. If not, stay very far away! It was fun, but technical. The trail is extremely well marked, but the washout has won the battle of trail-surface integrity. UPDATE: THE TRAIL COST IS NOW $3, AND THE MAIN TRAIL IS MARKED AS 5.2 MILES. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/02/2006  -  Joel of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Single track no options Opinions: This trail was a good technical ride. I just wanted to note to all that the fee has been raised from $2.00 to $3.00 Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 07/04/2006  -  Sean of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: eventually I have hit all the options now many times my first time I don't think I made the whole main loop. My favorites are the Pig Trail (I think that is after Tuff Trail 2) and "Christmas" Opinions: Great variety, definately a place to work on tech skills. This was my first MTB trail ever on July 4 of 06. I was hooked. There are a bunch of great optionals to stretch out a ride to about 10 miles ora beginner can get a taste by doing 4 miles on the "main trail" don't be fooled this place can be tough and tiring. But well worth the smiles! Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 06/29/2006  -  Steve Ford of Mooresville, NC Route Taken: Main trail. Opinions: This is a fantastic trail! Enough options and bypasses to allow groups of differing abilities ride completely different trail...while right next to eachother. Don't miss the Gravity Cavity! It's like a dirt roller coaster. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 06/20/2006  -  Rob of Phoenix, AZ Route Taken: every inch of trail including all optional singletrack loops (times two) Opinions: outstanding trail! One that Charlotte and the Trailblazers should be proud of. Being from out of state and riding solo, I was appreciative that the trail was so well marked. Some areas of the trail are handlebar wide and the drop offs, tight turns, logs and bridges were a blast for a wide open desert cross country hucker. I stayed off the 'NorthShore' stuff because there was no one there to carry my carcass out. I wish I had time to ride it at night. Suitable and fun for all skill levels. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 06/03/2006  -  MDB of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: All of it - including Devil's Drop! Opinions: AWESOME!! This is one of my favorite trails in the area & great for a quick ride after work. It's recently been maintained & is easier to get around. The trail fee has increased to $3, but so worth the money!

Date Ridden: 03/26/2005  -  MELISSA of Mooresville, NC Route Taken: main trail, some options and gravity cavity. Opinions: Great trail had an awesome time until gravity cavity this is not for th beginners as I learned. I left with 2 broken ribs and 1 lacerated liver (this I discovered in the hospital) still was fun but next time I will leave that option out!!! Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 05/10/2004  -  MoD of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Main Trail (Blue dot w/ Red Arrow) with many of the "Optionals" PAY YOUR $2!!! Wooden box in the shed at trailhead. Opinions: This trail is awesome!! The trails are packed into dense forest and for the 5 miles of main trail you are never more than 1/2 mile from the lot! Alot to offer whether you are XC to Freeride/North Shore. Plenty of decent size rocks incorporated into parts of the trails. There are many sections to challenge your skills: Devils Drop(50- 60ft @ 40 degrees - often muddy), Rock Dam, Gravity Cavity(try to keep your rig on the ground!), several nameless rock gardens right on the main trail. Trail holds water in certain places, definitely give it 24hrs after rainfall. Of all the options, "Singletrack" was the slowest due to many roots. Would recommend beginners take it easy and maybe buddy up on your first several runs. Many thanks to the land owners - excellent management of the trails and it appears the $ we spend goes back into the trail! Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 04/01/2003  -  Davis of Charlotte, NC Route Taken: Opinions: Compared to the other trails in Charlotte, in my opinion, I thought Poplar Tent was the most technical of all. There are some very tricky climbs that are loaded with roots and other objects determined to knock you off your path. I took a couple of beginners here and they had a very difficult time managing the terrain. Granted, Catawba may have longer climbs and faster downhills, but in order to become a well-rounded rider, it's necessary to go to places like Poplar Tent. The trails are very well maintained also and seem to drain better after rain than say, Renaissance. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/26/2002  -  Bill of Concord, NC Route Taken: all/or parts of,depends on the mood Opinions: Great as seen by the large number of rider usage.I highly recommend this trail to anyone especially since the addition of 4+ miles of single track done by Steve Kiker and Jerry Adams. If there is a short coming it would be a lack of long hill climbs. As a frequent visitor I break the monotony by using the service road to interconnect favorite sections. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 08/01/2002  -  Scott Reynolds of Concord, NC Route Taken: Main loop plus half of the options Opinions: Very nice trail. This is my first trail ridden in NC, I just moved here from Mass. and I have ridden quite a bit in New England, Virginia, West Virginia, and Florida. The trails were hard packed clay with a few roots here and there. Some of the trails are very tight and good for honing your balance and agility. I think that the main trail is good for beginners to intermediate and the options are good for intermediate to advanced. There are some areas where I would not take a beginner and some I would not even take an intermediate (Devil's Drop). Overall it was a very fast exciting ride and I was happy to pay the $2.00. Difficulty: Trail Rating:

Date Ridden: 04/30/2002  -  Patrick of Charlotte, Nc Route Taken: All options Opinions: Great riding for beginner to advance.

Date Ridden: 03/15/2001  -  Matt M. of Concord, NC Route Taken: Main trail Opinions: This is a great setup. I am a beginner and ride a M40 which might not be the best bike to rate this with but still.... Great jumps at the beginning and I like the rocky area in the middle. I have to stop a few times to catch my breath but well worth the effort to finish it out. I believe it is one heck of an accomplishement to ride any part of this trail. I met the owner, very pleasurable! Difficulty: Trail Rating:
