Amazingly that place is a tourist destination (okay, not for many).

The north slope of Alaska is also a tourist destination.For some.

For me, I had to be paid to visit it.

I got to experience wind chill of -72°F and actual temps of -48°F.

I miss that work, just not the temps so much.

By the way, I did the Resolute work from Alaska. It was far colder in Resolute with much tougher design criteria than the North Slope.
