The Black Tusk is a remarkably abrupt pinnacle of volcanic rock located in Garibaldi Provincial Park, British Columbia. Visible from a great distance in all directions, the Tusk is the eroded remains of an ancient lava column.

The summit area, at 2319 metres above sea level can only be reached by a difficult and exposed scramble. Nevertheless, the Black Tusk is an extremely popular hiking destination, with thousands of visitors visting the column every year.
