AdventureSmart Trail Specific Safety Video - Black Tusk

Towering above Lake Garibaldi, the iconic Black Tusk is a popular destination for overnight hikers looking to challenge themselves deep in the backcountry of Garibaldi Provincial Park. Although this trail starts in close proximity to Vancouver, it’s important to remember that you will be venturing deep into the backcountry and up into the exposed alpine where snow and severe weather is common well into the summer.
Let BC AdventureSmart @BCAdvSmart guide you through the Three Ts helping you plan, and prepare, for this challenging trail.

Just did this hike, but we started from Cheakamus, camping at Helm Creek. Mosquitoes were horrific, views were terrific.

Need multi years of hiking experience to finish this trail and scrambling, I am a solo hiker for over 10 years, never twisted knees or ankles, the more you hiking the less chance you get injured. Just need common sense you can avoid most of hazard may render upon you.

I encounter black bear a couple of times, they are as lovely as a pet, but don’t trying to pet them.
