To pop a wheelie you pull up and back on the bars and pedal hard. To pop a wheelie without pedaling is called a "manual" The wheelie is fairly easy to get up. Staying up is hard but not really a skill you need to ride trails. A manual is hard to master but can be very helpful for trail riding. A well timed manual followed by a bunny hop can get you over logs and such.
