No one else may care, but 'permafrost' is now an official Library of Congress term. Until now, I've had to use 'frozen ground', which doesn't really sum up permafrost.
Other fun LOC tidbits:
hovercraft is known as ground-effect machine
taste test is known as food--sensory evaluation

About me
Currently residing in Anchorage, Alaska.
Life in the far north is not always all it's cracked up to be. I can't see Russia from here, but that's probably because of the ice fog.
