Up early this morning to meet Inge for a skate on Poolburn. Ice the same as yesterday. Good skating with some smooth areas stronger over night. Some water showing around the edges by the time I left.
Headed to Grey Lake to see if the ice had lasted there. Had a skate on a new dam then walked into the lake. Fab ice - snow ice again but smooth and hard. Great skating. Ice started to soften as I left.
Great skate day.....

Poolburn has a huge chunk of skate able ice in the main bay. Could work again tomorrow with a frost. Edges melting in the warmth. Ice hard and rippled with some smooth areas.
