In this episode of River Runners, we head deep into the northern woods of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula to explore a hidden gem—the Underground Little Ocqueoc River. This wild and remote stream winds through thick forest and limestone terrain, creating a unique freshwater ecosystem unlike anything we’ve seen so far. As we follow its path, we discover a variety of rare and delicate plants and animals that call this place home. From crystal-clear pools to mossy rock beds, every twist and turn brings something new and unexpected. It’s one of those places that feels like it belongs in a storybook—untouched, mysterious, and full of life. With every step, we’re learning, exploring, and soaking in the beauty of Michigan’s wild side. This river might be small and underground, but its impact is huge. Come along with us as we share all the amazing finds from our adventure on the Underground Little Ocqueoc River.
