Pine Top is one of
the USA's premier eventing sites. Its gently rolling
fields consist of stone-free, well-drained sandy loam soil.
Furthermore, the soil supports thick, deep-rooted turfgrass which holds up amazingly well to galloping hooves. The soil is naturally well-drained, and the owners' lifelong familiarity with the land has guided grading work in key spots to handle excess runoff from
heavy rains. The result is a combination of footing, turf and drainage
that withstands wet or dry weather and still provides good going.
Pine Top's cross country
courses are flowing, galloping courses utilizing 200 acres of open pasture
land. Jumps are substantial and inviting. Many are built with large home-grown
treated pine logs. There are multiple water complexes, banks and ditches. Presently, course design is by John Williams of Southern Pines, NC, and Glenn Wilson. The farm is managed by Janet and Glenn Wilson.
