BACKPACKING PORCUPINE MOUNTAINS | UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN: HIKING ALONG BIG & LITTLE CARP CREEK

Hiking, Camping, and Fishing through the Porcupine Mountains in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan was truly a once in a lifetime experience. The landscape was something unique to this part of the country and I am so happy I was able to put my boots down on it for three days. Our trail led us down the Little Carp River, across the Lake Superior Coastline, and then up the Big Carp River to the highest spot on the Mountains. We roughly did 20-25 pack miles and another 5-10 camp/fish miles. We absolutely pushed our bodies to the next level with packs that weighed well over 60lbs. Miles were slow and miles were long! At the end of most days it seemed like we hardly had any time to do any good fishing. With the little time we had each day to actually do some fishing we were only able to find a select few. We both managed to get into the native brook trout that lurk in this coffee tinted water! The bonus catches were a steelhead smolt as well as the rare double chub. This sort of experience is not for the faint of heart. By no imagination are we experts in this department, but please do as much preparation as you can and really research your trip. I hope you enjoy the information in this video.
