Decided to check Poolburn this morning. Most of the lake has ice but it looked like it had all come at once overnight. Hard and strong but too thin to skate. I had a couple of scratchy edge skates then walked to a far bay over the other side of the dam. Found thicker black ice and had a good skate within the bay only. Then went via Idaburn to check out Grey Lake - the only place I knew was in shadow apart from Rush Cutters. Idaburn had fresh ice (some water showing) that may have been skate able early morning but I was too late. I rode into Grey Lake and found black ice and was treated to a fabulous skate. Hard to leave.... Finished the day with a smooth skate out from Rush Cutters.
