A woman's eyelashes and hair were completely frozen solid during storm Elliott.

Footage shows Emily Davis's hair and eyelashes frozen solid after spending 45 minutes outside in -60° F temperatures.

Emily, a journalist and grad student at Montana State University, was cross-country skiing in her hometown of Bozeman, Montana, when her hair and eyelashes became frozen.

The video was filmed as storm Elliott pummeled the state with snow and temperatures reaching -60° F.

Emily, 25, said: "I was out on a cross-country ski and my hands and feet were so cold that I had to go very fast, that's why my face was covered in ice, because of my breath.

"Normally my hands and feet are fine, but we had to go very fast this time, so they wouldn't fall off.

"I might have a different view of winter than most people, I love it, so it's been disappointing not being able to spend much time outside.

"The local ski mountain even closed down for two or three days, that's the first time I've ever seen that."

The video was filmed on Dec 21.
