Where were you the coldest?
Minnesota for me -30 one time, glad I don't live up there.

Deer hunting at the Tamarac back in the blizzard of 1994. Not sure what the temp was but it was a miserable bitch.
Dowd Junction can be miserable too.

Ft Drum, NY. We hit a patch where for 8 days the daytime highs were all negative with the worst having a high of -14 and a low of -32. I forget what the windchills were. And yes, PT was still going on. We came back from our runs with ice crystals on eyebrows, and for people wearing the ski mask there was a circle of frost on the fabric over the mouth. Never wanted to do the Thursday sergeant's time training so much before the entire time I was in.
Fraser, CO. -44*F working outside![]()

Wow...I checked my weather app and it shows 1 degree. No wonder your feathers are frosted! I won't mention that it's 79 here today...
Coldest I can remember was -17 up north of Craig while elk hunting one year. Although I remember one "spring" spent living in a tent in Korea with one diesel-fired heater while it was freezing cold outside. I still think it was -20 or lower, but it may have only felt that way.

First Scout Klondike at Kenoshas Pass with my son -20 tent camping.
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
Ft. Wainwright, AK. -50. Never going back there.
Toss up, feinsteins or pelosis snatch. Yeah I said it.
-75 windchill at the top of Crystal Mountain ski resort on Valentine's Day, many years ago. -42 measured temperature in a blizzard in Grand Forks, ND, when I was a kid.
-treading water in San Francisco bay next to a capsized boat for over an hour. Was so cold I couldn't talk when picked up by another boat.
