The Black Tusk is a badass stratovolcano in British Columbia, Canada. Standing tall at 2,319 meters, this volcanic rock pinnacle is a total showstopper, visible from miles away. It's like the rockstar of Garibaldi Provincial Park, with its jagged shape and black coloring giving off major Thunderbird vibes to the Squamish people. Hikers love tackling its lower flanks for some epic backcountry adventures, but reaching the summit is no walk in the park – you gotta scramble up some exposed rock. It's a wild ride, but totally worth it for the killer views!
