Distance: 2 km
Elevation Gain: 213 m (699 ft)
Time: 1 hour
Difficulty: Easy
This short hike in the Atlin area starts from the Como Lake Recreation site. The trail does climb fairly steeply in parts, criss-crossing a mountain bike trail, but the views make up for it on the way up and down. The viewpoint (turn-around spot) has gorgeous views of Atlin Lake, Graham Inlet of Tagish Lake, and Mount Minto (K'iyan').

Heather on Sheep Creek
As of October 24 (due to park closure) the roadway leading to the parking lot for Sheep Creek is blocked by a locked gate. We parked at the turn-off just past the Thechal Dhal visitors' centre and walked the ~4km in, adding about 25 minutes each way. Bikes would be perfect here, until it snows more.

A quick update on the parking. The owner of the property up there has put a lot of No Parking signs. To be clear, you still have the right to park there, his property is well further up on the driveway. The trail on the side of the highway is part of the Highway tenure and most of the driveway is ...

Marianna on Mount Perkins
We hiked Mount Perkins today Oct 24, 2021, only up to the false summit. It was a gorgeous day, it wasn’t hard to find the trail with GPS. We started late so didn’t have the time to go all the way up and in the snow it was slower anyway. The snow was helpful on the way down to buffer the steep de...
