I have to say that I miss the cold... I do envy you your minus temps. It's been three years since I wintered in the Su; I have to say that I've never seen anything so beautiful as -40 when the sun is rising and setting at the same time and the alpenglow is all over the horizon in every direction. Enjoy, and please keep the cold reports coming--with pics.
