MTB trail report: Chilhowee in Tennessee

Labor Day weekend was made for mountain biking

After discovering the <a href="http://www.singletracks.com/php/trail.php?id=477">Tanasi trails</a> on the banks of the Ocoee river in Tennessee a few weeks back we were stoked to ride the <a href="http://www.singletracks.com/php/trail.php?id=456">Chilhowee trails</a> right down the road on the opposite side of the Ocoee. Luckily we picked up a map of the trail system the last time we were in the area and the trails were all marked 'Easy' to 'Moderate' on the map. We plotted our route to maximize mileage while avoiding backtracks and after a quick lunch of PB&amp;J sandwiches we hit the trail around 1pm. The trailhead is located beside Lake Ocoee and we knew this would be an 'up and down' ride so we put our heads down and began the climb up the Clemmer trail. The doubletrack / wide singletrack trail climbed nearly 1,000 feet in 3 miles or so but it was all rideable (though a little rocky and rooty in spots). We continued the climb on the Slickrock loop and found a short stretch of real singletrack but the roots and rocks generally sucked our momentum through the short flat to downhill stretches. Rejoining the Clemmer trail we headed toward the (unnamed?) upper campground and rode a nice downhill stretch through a damaged forest area that afforded great views of the surrounding peaks. At the campground we had a little trouble staying on the trail as it wound across paved roads and campsites but eventually joined up with the Clear Creek trail. <div style="text-align: center;"><img id="image1101" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=
