Difficulty: Easy
*** Distance and Time is one way***
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.

Nice hike, I‘d highly advise to have the provided GPS track on any device, it saved me twice alerting „off path“ as these can sometimes easily been mistaken and markings are not there as often as it would be helpful.

Martin on Spirit Canyon
Provided GPS track is definitely different to the trail which starts at the parking lot. Trail is well recognizable all the time, can‘t be missed. Never met the GPS track though until at the very end when reaching the canyon. Overall nice and easy walk. Views at the canyon are awesome!
