What Ice Chests Do You Carry

[Brutus]

We use a small Edgestar medical freezer with our Honda generator for fishing trips while dry camping. Freezes fish fast. Day-to-day, our 36 qt cooler gets the job done.

For extended camping in the boonies, we use a 90 qt Igloo cooler ("da beast") . We make ice blocks by filling gallon water jugs, which then becomes drinking water as it melts. For really hot weather, we'll take a box, biggest that'll fit in the freezer (but with expansion room of course), and line it with a garbage bag. Fill with water and freeze. Bury the cooler in the ground at the campsite and we can chip ice for a week! Mind you this is extreme, but sometimes "going to town for supplies" just isn't gonna happen...
