Rather pedestrian for Sunday Bridges

So marshy even after the long-gone snow thaw is this section of the Little Carp River Trail in the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park at the western end of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.  Hmmm, can we call it wilderness if there is man-made walkway through the marshy sections?! 

For slightly more sophisticated bridges, visit Louis' Sunday Bridge Series.

  1. hee hee! Well, it's still wilderness enough that some 6 lanes of traffic aren't driving over it - and it looks like it is seldom used for feet! In any case, a welcome contribution to Sunday Bridges!

  2. This is great for hikers so they don't degrade the trail when it's wet. Is it taken down in the dry season?
