Bit of the choice today - Lower Manorburn or Poolburn? Decided to head up and meet Dave at Poolburn to see what the stormy weather had left. Nice to be up early with the frost. -5 when I arrived. Had a short skate in the small bay while waiting for Dave then we headed to the far bay. Big chunk of snow effected ice had surfaced off a bit so we were able to have a good skate. Plenty of evidence of weather changing the ice. Later we headed over to the dam where I had a skate while Dave headed off exploring around the lake. On the way out I skated on part of the main bay and the ice felt the safest of all today. Light wind came up so I was able to get out the kite for a bit of ice kiting. Great day despite not making it to the Lower Manorburn.
