Coldfooter,
It snows in Hawaii. Mauna Loa even has skiing. It snows on Mt. Killimanjaro in Africa. And it is very near the equator. You can be thousands of miles from air temperatures above freezing. (In winter) But you can NEVER be more than 10 miles from SUB ZERO air temperatures. At 50,000 feet ALTITUDE it is always below zero. Altitude will and DOES play a much greater role in temperature than lattitude ever will.
Now do you want to consider the disolved oxygen in the water that will be about 1/3 less at Strawberry than a body of water at or near sea level? That will have an impact on the survivabilty of the fish in Strawberry too.
