Eagle Lake Area of Critical Environmental Concern

From the U.S. Department of the Interior:




Eagle Lake Area of Critical Environmental Concern is 5,100 feet above sea level in northeast California and subject to harsh winter conditions. Having no natural surface outlet, Eagle Lake is a closed basin lake with its water levels fluctuating with variations of inflow. As temperatures drop below freezing, fascinating ice formations are created on the surface. Photo by Bob Wick, Bureau of Land Management - California.
