The human body reacts more negatively when educed with cold conditions than to hot ones.
So in theory a person would have a much higher chance of surviving in extremely hot conditions as compared to extremely cold ones.
But as has been mentioned, there are more means by which to ward off extreme cold than extreme heat - you only have to shield the cold and reflect the warmth, rather than physically cooling the body.
I definitely prefer the cold.
