The majority of Poplar Run is this wood path over the swamp. This is on the residential side, with dirt trail uphill to the street. The far end of the wood path is NW Branch midway through the north section.
New bridge (photo is April '22) at Rt. 29 looking north. The current trail description mentions deep rocky gully that was here, but it's gone now. I typically ride up the left side trail shown, but the two reconnect over the hill.

NW Branch North of Rt 29
New bridge (photo is April '22) at Rt. 29 looking north. The current trail description mentions deep rocky gully that was here, but it's gone now. I typically ride up the left side trail shown, but the two reconnect over the hill.
First climb out of Burnt Mills / Rt. 29 moving southbound.
This is the toughest feature on this section of NW Branch (Rt. 29 to Kemp Mill Road).
Moving north from the end of the paved trail, this is the first of the lung-busting, glutes-testing climbs on NW Branch and the optional Copperhead (high ground) route. This one has no stream crossing at the start so you can get momentum and charge up.
One of 3 wood features added recently, just north of Randolph Road. In quick sequence: an airdrop (behind camera), this ramp, and a skinny off image right.
very short singletrack along Powder Mill creek connects to a bobcat made trail that goes to the three bridges
