(This is also across the road from Little Atlin Lodge's driveway if you're staying there). Park before the get and then head up the road to the gravel pit. You will see a big pile and a generator shed, go around the pile to the forest and you will see a path in the tree and a orange cable. Don't proceed up the road past the pile it will lead you no where. There are no trail markers.

Once you find the orange cable you will basically be following that the rest of the way up. There's braided paths in areas. From here you will just follow the trail towards the radar tower.
