Bit of a wait this year for the cold weather. Set off yesterday for a look around the skating spots. Managed to get the skates on a very small pool by a creek but nothing much else. Today was better. Visit to Poolburn and more ice than yesterday and had a great first skate at the shaded edge of the main bay. Ice was clear, hard and almost thick enough but held my weight ok. Had a look in a few other places and had a wee skate at the edge behind the dam. (Needs a few more frosts)
Water level is very low this year and making the resevoir edges look quite different. Track is rough but mainly dry with a big water hole at the top.
