“I was confused and in disbelief,” Sash Lake insisted.

“I saw a huge black mass or hump in the middle of the loch, roughly the size of a double-decker bus,” the tourist recounted.

Sash Lake emphasized that even though he didn't see clearly the monster due to the loch’s surrounding trees, he was still startled by its giant size, which made him goosebumps.
