Legend of Mount Hood:
Many of these legends allude to mountain eruptions. One of the most interesting is the story of the origin of Mount Hood.
In a prelapsarian state, the humans around Mount Hood were as tall as trees, and the tallest among them was their great chief. One day an evil spirit who lived on the mountain began spewing lava and rocks from the summit, raining death onto the tribe. That night, the Changer, the greatest of the Gods, appeared to the chief in a dream. “You must conquer the spirit,” he said. “Or else your tribe will perish from this earth.”
The chief, undaunted by the spirit’s power, climbed to the top of the mountain. He began to hurl rocks at the spirit. The spirit heated those rocks up and threw them down the mountain. The battle was waged for several days until the spirit was defeated. The chief looked out on the land where his people lived, blackened and destroyed from the raining rocks.
The chief wept at what he saw. Then he died.
The other tribe members, luckily, had survived the annihilation by taking shelter on other mountain peaks. For a time they starved because of the land’s desolation and grew smaller. The former giants would no longer be as large as they once were.
