Going to Yakutsk involved a trip of 2,500 miles through the wilds of Siberia In midwinter, paBS Ing through the coldest portion of the globe where the thermometer registered 90 degrees below scro. The trip was made by reindeer and dog sled, on horseback and on foot, and Involved nine months of travel through sections almost unknown geographically.
