Blackcomb Glacier Provincial Park

Blackcomb Glacier Provincial Park, Provincial park in Squamish-Lillooet Regional District, Canada.

Blackcomb Glacier Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada, lying just east of and above the resort town of Whistler and next to Garibaldi Provincial Park. Its terrain sits at 2,116 metres above sea level, and the surrounding area is permanently covered by ice and snow. Whistler, the nearest larger settlement, lies 7.4 km to the west.

The park received official designation in 1990 after being separated from a larger protected area. This decision aimed to safeguard the sensitive glacier and alpine zones specifically.

The park lies in the territory of the Lil'wat and Squamish First Nations, whose connection to these mountains long predates the park's creation. The name Blackcomb comes from Blackcomb Peak, the mountain above the glacier. The park was carved in 1990 from land formerly protected by Garibaldi Provincial Park, which borders it.

The park sits at 2,116 m above sea level, 7.4 km east of Whistler and next to Garibaldi Provincial Park. The surrounding terrain is mostly mountainous, with the immediate area hilly, and the ground is permanently covered by ice and snow. Approach from the Whistler side and prepare for high-altitude snow conditions year-round.
