Warm temps today around Central this morning made it an optimistic call to look for ice. Decided to check out Coalpit as it had the most promise on Saturday. The ice was hard and dry but not quite thick enough so decided to head to Poolburn to have a look. Despite being above zero there was still a bit of snow on the way up - a good sign. Walked down to the the lake edge and was pleased to be able to skate on black ice - my favourite skating ice. Was able to skate over a satisfying area but didn't venture too far as the ice varied and was creaky in a few places. Fab skate. Hopefully we will get a few more frosts....
