Moberly Lake Creature
Moberly Lake is east of Dawson Creek, British Columbia .Like
many Canadian Lakes it is said to have a resident monster. 65 million years ago, Moberly Lake
was part of the shore of a great inland sea.
There have been various sightings of the Moberly
Lake monster over the years, It
has an abundance of fish such as Trout and Pike.
Moberly Lake is special to the Dane-zaa First
Nations people, they call it “the lake
you can depend on.” Food sources there were always plentiful and reliable.The
Dane-zaa First Nations also know , Moberly Lake as “the lake with a hole
through it” or “the lake with no bottom.” There is a legend that is often told
of an ancient creature that surfaces sometimes. The average depth of the lake
is 18.3 m (60 ft) and maximum depth said to be 42.7 m (140 ft).Deep enough to
hide a monster even if it is not bottomless.
In 1989 a local resident reported seeing a creature in the
lake with a horse like head.It seems the first nation legend may not be a
legend after all.
Since then there seems to have been no sightings
reported but possibly people are reluctant to report it because of fear of
ridicule. If anyone knows of any more recent reports of the creature please
post in comments .
