Hurry if you want to ice skate!

Poudre Lake, at Milner Pass, on the Continental Divide, is just now beginning to thaw. I'll return to the lake over the summer, so that you can watch the progress.

And in case you're curious, this view of the Continental Divide captures the water that drains into the Atlantic, via the Missouri River, the Mississippi River, and the Gulf of Mexico. This ice, when it melts, will have a loooonnnngggg way to travel.
