Brooklyn

Total Slacker

One legend has it that Bird Monsters (Tsé Ninájálééh) nested on the peak and fed on human flesh. In one version, after Monster Slayer destroyed Déélééd at Red Mesa, he killed two adult Bird Monsters at Shiprock and changed two young ones into an eagle and an owl.[7] (In another version, the Warrior Twins were summoned to rid the Navajo of the Bird Monsters.[8])
The peak is mentioned in stories from the Enemy Side Ceremony and the Navajo Mountain Chant.
