Overview

Michigan Creek is a small network of out-and-back trails on the southern side of Georgia Pass. Passing through dense pine and aspen groves, it occasionally opens up to wide vistas of the South Park valley. With a wealth of aspens, the trail provides some really spectacular fall colors. Michigan Creek is the perfect place to get away from the crowds for some really secluded camping. There are several large, dispersed campsites and a handful of smaller ones.
