Field producer Crofton Diack told Deadline that she is now used to filming with the cast of Life Below Zero, including longtime cast member Sue Aikens, despite the weather and below freezing temperatures.

"The very first leg that I went out with Sue we got separated from our food. Just all these crazy things happened. But it was a hundred below," she told the outlet. "There was 24 hours there where I really didn't think we were going to make it because the stove didn't start and it was just terrible. But we did. Being in Sue's company is intense and it's fun."
