Life above the Arctic Circle -- looks like fun to me!
New York Times article -- lots of great photos and text from all around the Arctic I just gotta go North. Maybe next winter, after I retire . . . . .

I love Yukon winters. We walk our dogs twice a day regardless of the temperature, even at -40. Just need to dress appropriately.
We also snowshoe, ski, ski-doo and take daytrips to sightsee the mountain ranges along the Haines Road and Kluane area. It's beautiful! Liard hot springs is also great at -40 !
Maybe because I was born and raised here, it is quite normal for me. Hated the rain, rain, rain, rain, rain when I lived on Vancouver Island for 30 years.
Liard Hot Springs in December 2001 at -40F
We often snow shoe the north Maine woods at -20F. I am not sure I could do that at -40F. That is serious cold. Many years ago I trapped at -40 below. Very easy to chill any exposed flesh if you are not careful.
Great picture Sue.
