Explanation

Verkhoyansk in Siberia, Russia, is one of the coldest inhabited places on Earth, with recorded temperatures as low as -67.8°C (-90°F). It competes with Oymyakon (also in Siberia) for this title. Rogers Pass and Prospect Creek are in Alaska but don't reach Verkhoyansk's extremes. Mount Everest is not in India (it's on the Nepal-China border) and is not the coldest place.
