Mount Wellington
Mauna Kea's seasonal transitions are really strange - I wonder how long the POR is.

Mauna Kea. If it has to be cold, it should at least be dry and sunny.

Mt Wellington, it's a short drive to sunny Hobart anyway with its stuffy 19C weather

Mount Wellington obviously, it's the "mildest" of the bunch. If it has to be cold, it should also be rainy, cloudy, and stable.

Is there such a thing as the best Tundra Shithole ?? This is Mt Wellington, Tasmania in Feb 1958. From the summit looking over Hobart 65 years ago ( my father's honeymoon slides )     |

Reykjahlรญรฐ, Iceland, since one is able to actually live there unlike mountain peaks in national parks.

Hard to say. How windy is Mount Wellington? I guess it's more windy than Reykjahlรญรฐ and Mauna Kea Observatory.
How about the sun hours in both Mt Wellington and Mauna Kea. I guess the latter is very sunny, so it's plenty of decent afternoons.
Ushuaia and El Alto would have been better choices, although in case of El Alto, as well as in Mauna Kea, UV indexes might be a bit intimidating.

Gonna have to be Mauna Kea, at least the low-latitude high-elevation sun would make those temps feel a little more comfortable, but still, this battle like which poison will cause the least painful death

Reykjahlith It's the mildest while still having winter average temperatures below freezing. If I'm going to live in a cold tundra, I at least need some good snow in the winter. Assuming most of Mt. Wellington's precip is cold rain, that is some puke-worthy winter weather. greysrigging are there snow stats for Mt. Wellington? |

I'm picking Mauna Kea, as it's an easy drive to an actually inhabitable tropical climate from there.

I doubt there are any official snow stats/records for Mt Wellington.....and its one of those typical 'roaring fourties' changeable climates with heavy snowfalls being washed away by heavy rainfalls. Often dangerous blizzard conditions.... www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10918137/Snow-Hobarts-Mt-Wellington-shows-freezing-hikers-rescued-blizzard.html |
