FIRST SNOW TODAY!!! First Snow 2010/09/02

The clouds lift and reveal a dusting of snow on top of Atlin Mountain.

AtlinUninsignwbackgd.jpgAtlin is ... a small isolated  community in the NW corner of British Columbia, on the traditional lands of the Taku River Tlingits.

Glacial-fed Atlin lake is 4 miles wide and 85 miles long, in a wide wilderness valley surrounded by snowcapped mountains.

Atlin is a 2 or 3 hour drive from Whitehorse Yukon or Skagway Alaska. Current population is up to 400 full-time residents. During the Klondyke Gold Rush of 1898, the population was 10,000! Many buildings from that era still remain. 

Though Mining and Tourism underpin the economy of Atlin, there is a large and very influential colony of artists, artisans and authors in this very special little-known community.
