The Black Tusk is a stratovolcano and a pinnacle of volcanic rock in Garibaldi Provincial Park of British Columbia, Canada. At above sea level,〔 the upper spire is visible from a great distance in all directions. It is particularly noticeable from the Sea-to-Sky Highway just south of Whistler, British Columbia. Distinctive and immediately identifiable, The Black Tusk is among the best known mountains in the Garibaldi Ranges of the Coast Mountains. The volcano is part of the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt which is a segment of the Canadian Cascade Arc, but it is not within the geographic boundary of the Cascade Range. ==Indigenous== To Squamish people, this mountain is known as ''t'ak't'ak mu'yin tl'a in7in'a'xe7en''. In their language it means "Landing Place of the Thunderbird", speaking of the supernatural ''in7in'a'xe7en'' or Thunderbird. The jagged shape of the mountain and its black colouring are said to come from the Thunderbird's lightning.〔 The same is true for Mount Cayley, another stratovolcano farther north.
