Vast zone of frozen terrain (6)

I believe the answer is:

tundra

(Other definitions for tundra that I've seen before include "Vast treeless plane" , "Treeless northern region" , "northern waste" , "Artic treeless plain" , "Vast level Arctic region with frozen subsoil" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
