About This Trail
A rugged 9.8-mile river corridor trail following the Little Carp River through the heart of the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness. The trail passes multiple backcountry campsites and Adirondack-style shelters beneath towering old-growth hemlock. Frequent elevation changes and root-covered terrain make this a challenging but rewarding backcountry route.
