The people of Yukon, Canada, and its tourists are making due with the extremely cold weather by having a little fun in a hair freezing contest. The contest, which has been hosted by Takhini Hot Pools since 2011, invites hot spring visitors to turn in their best frozen hair photos. The winner gets to take home $700 cash.
