Lake Chelan Dragon
Lake Chelan is in northwestern, U.S. A. The narrow lake goes
through a glacier-carved valley . It is fed by the Stehekin River.Its length is
55 miles (88 metres) and is estimated to be 1,486 feet deep.
It is said to be home to a monster.The monster was supposedly
brought there in September 1812 by a Captain
Chelan’s on his ship,as an egg.The egg was came from Captain Chelan’s childhood
home in Fort Augustus Scotland.The egg
was said to be offspring from the Loch Ness Monster.
The Lake Chelan monster is believed to be a dragon that can
fly..Local indigenous people in the area
have a long history of stories of encounters with the Dragon. Accounts claim
that on December 2nd 1892, three men on the shore were attacked by a Creature from the lake. It
apparently grabbed one of the men and flew off with him.
The Daily
Picayune of New Orleans, Louisiana, on December 4, 1892, published this
account , “An Amphibious Monster.”
A most extraordinary story comes from Boise
City, Idaho, which is said to be well authenticated.It says that while three
travelers were at the upper end of Lake Chelan recently one of them went into
the water to bathe. He was seized by the foot by a marine [sic] monster and was
being pulled into deep water, when his screams attracted the attention of his
companions, who came to his rescue. They pulled him ashore, the monster hanging
to his foot.It had legs and body like an alligator and the head and eyes of a
serpent. Between its fore and hind legs were large ribbed wings.The men tried
hard to tear the monster from the foot of their companion, and finally tried
fire, which had the effect of causing the animal to rise suddenly into the air,
taking its victim along, and finally landing in the lake, where both
disappeared from sight.
No
further information was published.
In 1945 a school bus crashed into Lake
Chelan.Everyone on board was killed. Divers were sent down to investigate and recover bodies. They
said they were circled by a slithery shadow, a creature 75 feet ( 25 metres) in length. The divers came up and refused to
return under water.
So a dragon or a large aquatic creature? Sounds more
like a large snake or eel. What do you think?
