porkys can still be ridin by sleds....or so they said last weekend at the DNR shack there.
The guy no way survived a fall off the edge there, its a 80-90 degree drop a long ways down, no way. I was just up there last weekend to see the fall colors....what an amazing view it was too.
If you plan on going, check out the americinn in silver city, i have stayed there a few times and their service, rooms, and food are fantastic...as well as inexpensive.
Also, the porkies are only about an hour south of houghton/hancock riding also.
