Stories of Ogopogo in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley date back several centuries— originating with the Syilx Peoples’ stories of N’ha-a-itk, the sacred spirit of the lake—and sightings are frequent, but the truth about Ogopogo remains elusive. After that day in 1978, Bill dedicated himself to Ogopogo research and exploratory expeditions, in search of answers. What is Ogopogo? An ancient creature from the age of dinosaurs? What are eyewitnesses seeing, and which sightings are genuine?
With lucidity and suspense, A Legend Hunter's Search for Ogopogo the Elusive Creature of Okanagan Lake documents the startling findings of a twenty-five-year enquiry into one of the most fascinating cryptozoological mysteries in the world.
Bill Steciuk has become known as an authority on Ogopogo, both locally in the Okanagan and internationally, after twenty-five years spent searching for the creature of legend. He has participated in several documentary films and TV shows on the subject and is the founder of Legend Hunters, an archive and online hub for stories and sightings. Bill lives in Kelowna, British Columbia, on Okanagan Lake, with his wife, Wendy.
