About This Item

Nessie Travel Bug

Loch Ness is part of the Great Glen a fault line that runs 60 miles from Inverness in the north to Fort Williams in the south. It is made up of 3 lochs (lakes), Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and Loch Ness.

The first recorded sighting of the creature was in 565 by St Columba an Irish priest. In 1933 Mrs Mackay saw a disturbance in the loch. She saw a large beast in the middle of the loch rolling and plunging in the water. The sight was reported to Alex Campbell, a local game keeper. Campbell claims to have seen the monster 18 times. The first picture (np1) of the Loch Ness monster was taken on the 12th of November 1933 by Hugh Gray at Foyers. Robert Kenneth Wilson took 4 photos on the 19th of April 1934. Only two came out (np2) the best one being the now famous head and neck shots.

Copies of the photos are in the photo gallery.

Discovered it at the Travel Bugs & GeoCoins & Jeeps Oh My @ The Ba$h! (Event Cache) on 8/20/2013. Sorry for the late logging but I had forgotten to log them when I got home and only remembered when I was telling someone about how much fun the Cachebash was. It was my first Megaevent and I hope to attend it again next year. Thank you for sharing.

I spotted this trackable during the weekend of West Bend $1,000 Cache Ba$h in West Bend, WI. It was one of a HUGE list of trackables that I saw during the three days of events.

I thank you for putting this trackable out there for me to discover because I love how each trackable has its own special story.
