Enjoying the reflections - looking back into Rush Cutters |
The plan for this morning was to head early to Poolburn but with no frost and very windy over night I decided to give it a miss. Decided to have a skate on the Lower Manorburn on the way home as the ice was quite thick in Rush Cutters corner last night. Was very enjoyable and with a bit of careful testing I was able to skate out into the middle basin. Ice had a layer of water but was smooth and hard. A lot of air bubbles just out of RC's which was a bit freaky. Great skate.
With a couple of frosts this ice should improve.....

Wet ice... but a good skating |

Looking into the Gorge - a rainbow in all... |
Idaburn: Mainly water - a little bit of skim ice at the edge
Coalpit: Mainly water - a little bit of skim ice at the edge
Lower Manorburn: Thick ice in Rushcutters. A couple of frosts (soon!) will make good skating
