We have had four winters in a row where the lowest temp was -39 or
-41 and just for a day or two.
  
You may have seen me mention elsewhere driving to Edmonton on July
6. We have half a mind of going via Dawson Creek instead of one of
the more direct routes as we plan to be in Worsley for a day. I'll
keep you posted; it would be cool to hook up for an afternoon after
corresponding for almost 15 years.  

Perhaps you could drop me your address and phone number at
arcticchef at theedge dot ca just in case.
