Chief Capilano and the Mohawk Princess
One short story, "The Sisters", describes the origin of the mountain known today as "The Lions." Two of a great chief’s daughters brought peace among warring tribes, so the Great Spirit immortalized them as twin mountain peaks. It ends:
“And on the mountain crest the Chief’s daughters can be seen wrapped in the suns, the snows, the stars of all seasons, for they have stood in this high place for thousands of years, and will stand for thousands of years to come, guarding the peace of the Pacific Coast and the quiet of the Capilano Canyon.”
