January 1996, there was two days whilst working on a pipeline near Geralton
Ontario, the
temperature
was recorded at -52 Celcius,with no wind chill factored in. Luckily there was
none.:-)

I, Ahumm, used the bush lavatory several times and Ahumm, it made it to the
snow as a

BTW -52 is as cold as i have ever worked.Dry cold or not, its friggin cold.:-)
