[MCR] Divide Creek, Feb19

Toured to 7200 feet in Divide Creek (Mt Niblock tour in Summits &
Icefields guidebook). 10 cm of new snow in the creek bed, everything
windhammered once you leave the lower creek and trees. Morraines look
and feel like something out of the Antarctic -wind scoured,
boilerplate surfaces, sastrugi, wind, wind, wind.

Happy trails
