Mount Lassen, which last erupted in 1915, is visible from Lake Almanor.
Thanks to PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric), Californians have reservoirs for their enjoyment and for the preservation of wildlife. Lake Almanor is a haven for white pelicans, eagles, ospreys, ibis and ducks. The American Bald Eagle nests at every reservoir in this part of California.
As we pulled into the Northshore Campgrounds at Lake Almanor, an eagle swooped overhead. Early the next morning, I spotted another eagle as it snatched a fish out of the water. A causeway that crosses the north part of the lake is the perfect spot to watch waterfowl activity.
