*** About Black Tusk: Black Tusk is the remnant of an ancient stratovolcano that stands as a prominent landmark in Garibaldi Provincial Park, near Whistler, British Columbia. Rising to 2,319 meters above sea level, this volcanic pinnacle is characterized by its distinctively sharp, jagged appearance—hence its name. Geologically significant, Black Tusk’s formation is tied to the complex volcanic history of the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt, part of the Cascade Volcanic Arc. Known for its challenging hiking trails and breathtaking panoramas, Black Tusk is a favorite among adventurous hikers and nature photographers seeking to capture its stark, pristine silhouette against the expansive Canadian landscape.
