Description
I grabbed this image on a January evening stroll on the north shore of Eagle Lake just a few miles from the community of Spalding. Back when there was more water here it was a great fishing spot known as "Heart Failure." I've never been 100% sure where it gets its name but I've always assumed it had something to do with the steep grade ending in a tight turn on the country road (Lassen County A1) leading to it which can be fairly spooky when it ices up. Back then (2020) the fishing season was closed anyway by then and the weather had been mild so the lake only had a bit of ice on it which I thought looked pretty nice under the pastel skies that happened when our little star dipped below the horizon.
