Epitome of remoteness (7)

I believe the answer is:

siberia

(Other definitions for siberia that I've seen before include "Arctic region" , "chosen by Putin for no-frills travel?" , "Frozen region of former USSR noted for prison camps" , "'Region of Russia, famous for its long, cold winters (7)'" , "Russian far-east" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
