About this site

Source

Forest surrounds this small site in the Atlin area, and it gets used both ways, as a day stop and as somewhere to camp, mostly by people who came to fish or put a boat in.

There are 2 sites at Palmer Lake, first come, first served, with gravel access and a boat launch.

Atlin, about 17 km away, is where you sort out supplies. The Monarch Mountain trailhead is about 13 km from the site if you want a climb in the weekend.
