Far North
Beyond the treeline
The Far North is the Arctic and subarctic regions—Alaska, northern Canada, Scandinavia, Siberia.
The phrase emphasizes remoteness and extreme climate: Life in the Far North requires adaptation to months of darkness.
Sometimes used more loosely for any region at the northern edge of a country or territory.
