*** About Black Tusk: Black Tusk is a striking volcanic peak located in Garibaldi Provincial Park of British Columbia, Canada. Renowned for its distinctive jagged shape and black coloration—which is a result of its volcanic rock composition—Black Tusk is one of the most recognized landmarks in the Southern Coast Mountains of British Columbia. At 2,319 meters high, it promises a challenging yet rewarding hike to those adventurous enough to ascend its summit. The origin of its name comes from its resemblance to a tusk of a massive wild animal, a visual highlighted even more by the often snow-capped surroundings. This area is not only a favorite among hikers but also serves as an important ecological site, home to diverse flora and fauna reflective of its unique geological history.
