im reading a siberian travelog right now and the guy is skirting the arctic circle and its really cold
read an amazing book earlier this year on the 'race for the north pole' that i cant remember the title of - all those doomed expeditions starving to death in the snow - but the history of (western) arctic exploration is crazy fascinating.
currently reading abt arctic ecology and its super interesting but sort of infuraiting all these rad amazing animals descriptions and then 'and while no longer threatened with extinction [animal x]'s population still remains at historically low levels'. the only exceptions are the ones that we actually did manage to wipe out completely...

okay looking at charts of population declines is depressing the hell out of me
