Where would you put a met office station to have record low temperatures?

[boywonder]

I would put one in linn of dee which is usually colder than braemar...I was searching for record low temperatures it seems many countries record temperatures in places which are uninhabited eg germanys coldest temperature is funtensee which is a small lake and italys all time low is also somewhere uninhabited. Why cant met office follow the same and put up stations in potential uninhabited frost hollows in highlands and pennines.

Big Trout Lake, Ontario would work. We probably don't want to keep it either.
