Actually I am living in Helsinki and temperatures below than -17C are very rare in these days. However, the northern area has a lot of snow in winter and the temperatures are very romanic for people like me . Also the sights of northern lights are wonderful. I was never been in northern areas in Jan - March but maybe HappyTimes can write here his own experiences

Can't wait to go in sauna and then go outside naked

Have you not been to Mt Thebarton over there in Adelaide or has it closed down now?
