Aaron Brooks at Dmitriev Memorial in Yakutsk this weekend

I’m cold just thinking about that trip
I was curious enough to look it up.

Currently 10 degrees F; no warmer than that for the weekend, with night-time temps below 0 F

Additional -- "the largest city on perma-frost", but home to 307,000+

They mentioned on the Weighing In podcast that Aaron is going to wrestle an exhibition match against Kamal Bey at the Missouri Border Brawl this year. It's going to be one period freestyle rules, one period Greco rules, and one period folkstyle rules. I think the date is March 17, & it will be on Track.
I was just in a race last weekend at Sugarbush where I had one ski, one snowshoe and a broom. Sounds similar.
 
I was bored so I looked up that town Yaktusk. Wikipedia said from November 10 - March 14 they have never had a recorded temperature above freezing. That’s crazy.
 
Home of the Mammoth museum. Ironically I just watched a show on Nat Geo about Wooly Mammoths and other ice age animals, their pristine remains found in the permafrost. Scientists want to extract their dna and combine with elephants to bring back the Wooly Mammoth.

If they perfect that, they could try Marilyn Monroe and Jessica Simpson to bring back Bo Derek.

I keep a few locations on my cell phone to keep track of the weather extremes around the world. I've seen Furnace Creek CA as high as 125 and Yakutsk as low as -55! What's really wild is that Yakutsk gets up into the 90's in the summer. That's a temperature swing of 145 degrees over the year.

2018 we had 97° and -26°

In the past we've seen 110° and -30°
