Chimney Rock (K'lpalekw in Secwepemctsin, meaning "Coyote's Penis") is a limestone formation in Marble Canyon, British Columbia, Canada. According to a First Nations legend, it was created by the actions of the Transformers, a group of supernatural beings who traveled around the country putting things to right by changing things into stone.[1]
