Long, long ago, there lived in the territory which is now Idaho, a very rich, proud tribe of Indians. Because they were so proud, none of their maidens or braves could marry outside of the tribe. This is the story of Timpanac, son of the Nez Perces' chief and medicine man. His father had married a maiden from the Yo-semite tribe, who was rejected by the Nez Perces and died when Timpanac was born. When Timpanac was 21, there was a great drought and the tribe was starving, so Timpanac was sent +o Silver Lake, now Utah Lake, to get food. While there he fell in love with Uncanogos, beautiful daughter of the chief. After returning with the food, Timpanac became chief of the tribe because of his father's illness. Meanwhile the chief of Silver Lake was urging Uncanogos to marry a Sioux, Apache, or Navajo, but she loved Timpanac; therefore a great contest was to be held, the winner to have her hand in marriage. Timpanac won each feat until the other braves were very angry. The last test was climbing the mountain where Uncanogos and some maidens would be waiting for the winner. Timpanac reached the top and started across a narrow ledge separating him from Uncanogos, when six braves grabbed him and threw him over the ledge, causing a great split which is now the glacier. At the bottom where he struck is now Emerald Lake. Uncanogos, seeing what happened, lay down, prostrate with grief, and today is the sleeping woman. The tribe combined their names and called the mountain Timpanogos, in memory of the two lovers. Tu unp no-ijtyi
