Monster or Secret Submarine?

“Situated in Idaho, Lake Pend Oreille is a huge expanse of water. It’s in excess of forty miles in length and 1,100 feet in depth. And, it might accurately be said that the lake is the home of a creature not unlike Loch Ness, Scotland’s legendary long-necked beast. You know the one I mean: it’s best known to just about everyone as Nessie. Or, just possibly, Lake Pend Oreille’s resident lake monster – which goes by the name of Paddler – might be something even stranger.

“Sightings of the prehistoric-looking thing date back to the 1940s and continue, albeit sporadically, into recent years. A particularly spectacular encounter with Paddler occurred on Memorial Day 1985. That was when a woman named Julie Green was on the lake with several friends when they caught sight of something huge and fantastic. It was a large, gray-colored thing which raced across the lake, seemingly partially above and below the surface of the water. That the presumed beast was only around 600 feet away meant Green and her friends were able to determine that whatever it was, it certainly wasn’t a wave.”

Those are the opening paragraphs of my new Mysterious Universe article, which you can find here.

    Remember “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea”, where the perceived sea monster that sunk ships was actually the “Nautilus”?
