Burdette Creek is a beautiful destination in the summer and winter just south of Atlin. The main attraction besides the great access to the alpine is the Burdette Cabin, a beautifully crafted backcountry hut that can be reserved through the Atlin Alpine Society. There are separate routes for each season, with trails built and maintained by the Atlin Alpine Society. From the hut, you can hike Sentinel Mountain and its extensive ridges with sweeping views over Atlin Lake and the surrounding valleys.
