Alert, Nunavut, Canada

It wouldn’t be a list of isolated places without including the tiny substation of Alert, at the most Northernmost point of Canada. Possibly the most well-known Arctic station, Alert is famously cold. Named after the British ship HMS Alert, the station is rotationally inhabited by military personnel and scientific researchers. Between April 8th and September 5th every year, there is literally no night time on Alert, the sun shines all of the time. One of the highest recorded temperatures at the station is 4 degrees Celsius.
