Narrative:

While taxiing to runway 33 btv, we inadvertently used taxiway K which is restr to aircraft 68200 pounds or less. The only other way to use all of runway 33 is to back taxi from taxiway C. While this is well marked in the charts it's not marked at the taxiway. Also this is an airport where you want to use every inch of runway so this taxiway should be upgraded.
