Is This
Champ? The Legendary “Monster” of Lake Champlain?
By Dorraine
Fisher
Lake Champlain is a 125 mile (201 km)
long strip of freshwater lake located between New York State and
Vermont, extending all the way up into Quebec, Canada. It is named
for Samuel De Champlain, the founder of Quebec. But the most
intriguing thing about it is the legend of Champ, the monster that’s
believed to live in the lake.
Many believe the creature could
possibly be a relic plesiousaur, a dinosaur believed to have become
extinct during the early part of the Jurassic period, but somehow
managed to survive after the lake dried up somewhat and was cut off
from the larger body of salt water which included the Atlantic
Ocean.
Many people in the area believe the stories are just legend with no real basis except to boost tourism around the lake. But since Champlain’s time, there have been hundreds of supposed sightings.

One of the most
notable scientists searching for evidence of Champ’s existence is
Scott Mardis who has graciously allowed me to share this with our
followers. According to Mardis, a man named Eric Olson was out
taking his morning walk in Oakledge Park near Burlington, Vermont ,
when he captured this video on his cell phone.
Let us know what you think.
