Thanks for sharing the info about poplars. The tree would have been on the south side of the ridge to its left.

As a forester in TN I sometimes find yellow poplar degrading on lower quality sites. I can’t tell about the quality of site from your pic. Was it a southern or northern aspect? Generally, poplar does much better on northern aspects. Just some food for thought when you’re out in the woods. Nice report. I will have to try that trail this year if I get to spend more time on the Pisgah.
