WE ARE 60,000 ACRES OF WILDERNESS THAT BRING FAMILIES CLOSER TOGETHER
We are trails and views that get kids outdoors and away from the Internet, away from the airwaves. We are something you do, not something you watch. We are skiing and snowshoeing and snowmobiling and snowball fights with your little sister. We are a day full of promise and a night full of stars. We are natural snow and natural lighting. We are the place Mother Nature brings her family, too. The Porcupine Mountains are one of the last great adventures.
