Alaska

Murmansk is above the arctic circle. Anchorage (pop. ~295000) may be largest subarctic city. Also Alaska has rail transport in the form of the Alaska Railroad. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.145.224.34 (talk) 21:24, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is Scotland really in the Subarctic? I should think most of Scotland has more than 3 months with average temperatures 10°C or more. Edinburgh has almost 5 months: Edinburgh climate

Aberdeen has 4 months. Even Kirkwall on the Orkney Islands - north of Scotland - has 4 months.

Reykjavik, Iceland, has a subarctic climate. And Tromsø, Norway.

Parts of Scotland are subarctic. For example the Cairngorms which makes up a hefty percentage of Scotland's total land area. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.104.203.12 (talk) 18:24, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not explored untill...what about Indigenous people?

Quote: "Except for a few parts of Europe where the winters are relatively mild due to prevailing wind patterns, subarctic regions were not explored until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Even then, the difficulty of transportation ensured that few settlements (most of them created for mining) lasted long - the ghost towns of the Yukon, Northwest Territories and increasingly Siberia illustrate this.

This statement completely forget the Indigenous peoples who actually were there first - the Indians of northern Canada, the Nenets people, the Komi people etc. Orcaborealis (talk) 16:15, 29 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
