Paul Bunyan is credited with creating the Black Hills, Puget Sound and the Grand Canyon. When he was born it took five storks to deliver him. When he was a week old, he could fit into his father's clothes. An entire herd of cows was needed to feed the growing Paul. As an adult, he felled trees an acre at a time. He used a hollow log as a whistle and he used a bent crowbar as a safety pin to hold his pants up. Paul found Babe, his Blue Ox, in Minnesota. The ox was blue because it was so cold there. Paul's footprints were said to have created the Great Lakes, while Babe's footprints created Minnesota's 10,000 lakes.
