I tried several "remote" thermometers in the GH, they tended to fail after 6 months or so. My GH does stay pretty damp, a really hostile environment for electronics. I ended up getting a wired thermocouple, the base unit is in the house. I run the thermocouple wire through a length of PVC pipe, to protect it from being stepped on. Unfortunately, the base unit doesn't do min-max, but over time, I found that if I checked it first thing in the morning, that was the time when temps are at minimum, max is afternoon.
If you can find a spot that stays drier, you likely won't have so much of a problem. 30 ft. for the remote depends on what else might be in the way (hope for clear line-of-sight) and what interference you might get from neighbors' electronics.
