Cold geohash achievement

This achievement may be taken by any geohasher or group of geohashers who reach the actual coordinates and document a colder temperature than the previous record holder.

As the first winter of geohashing moves across the northern hemisphere, expect this category to be hotly contested. Or coldly contested.
