Legend: 

Folklore associated with Hypersthene from indigenous North American legends among Squamish natives, tell a story of how the stone’s velvety black hue and metallic shimmering appearance came to be. Hypersthene stones are believed to originate when   Ice was struck by lightning from the eyes of a thunderbird, and along with the sound vibrations of the thunder, caused by the Thunder birds wings, turned into Hypersthene stones. These stones are still found on the mountain today.  Thunderbirds are legendary spirit birds that are believed to send lightning from their eyes and the flap of their gigantic wings created thunder. Below is the story translated.

HUNTERS FIND THE THUNDERBIRD (Told by Frank Bennett. A Hoh myth A. B. R.)  

Some men were hunting on the Hoh mountains. They found a hole in the side of the mountain. They said, "This is thunderbird's home. This is a supernatural place." Whenever they walked close to the hole they approached his place. He did not want any person to come near his house. He caused ice to come out of the door of his house. Whenever people came near there, he rolled ice down the mountain side while he made the thunder noise. The ice would roll until it came to the level place where the rocks are. There it broke into a million pieces, and rattled as it rolled farther down the valley. Everyone was afraid of Thunderbird and of the thunder noise. No one would sleep near that place over night.
