About Burns Lake
The town
Burns Lake is a village of about 1,700 people (2021) on Highway 16 in the Lakes District, roughly an hour and a half east of Smithers and two and a half hours west of Prince George. It stands on the home of the Ts'il Kaz Koh and on unceded Wet'suwet'en territory, and Woyenne, the Lake Babine Nation's largest community and the site of its main office, lies inside village limits. The village grew as a tie-cutting centre for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway; VIA Rail passenger trains still stop here. Northern Health runs Lakes District Hospital and Health Centre in town, and its website shows emergency department status. The regional district does building inspection for the village. The nearest scheduled flights leave from Smithers, which has daily service to Vancouver.
Around it
The countryside is Electoral Area B (about 1,700 people in 2021) of the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako, which writes its official community plan. Permits are needed inside the district's mapped inspection area, and some farmland is in the Agricultural Land Reserve, where the Agricultural Land Commission decides applications. Boer Mountain Recreation Site, just north of town, covers over 4,000 hectares of Crown land with about 30 km of downhill and 60 km of cross-country bike trail around Kager Lake. Highway 35 runs about 26 km south to the provincial ferry across Francois Lake to Southbank. Northern Tweedsmuir Park is reached mainly by boat on Ootsa and Whitesail lakes, where drowned trees and sudden winds are hazards.
