[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1643297, member: 12443"] For many years before I retired to Florida I would go on a camping fishing trip for at least a 7 day stay in a remote area of Quebec. So that meant our ice needed to last at least 8 days from purchase at the last place we could buy it before heading off the paved roads. I had and still have the same 150 qt Igloo I used for many of those trips. I lined the inside with 1" ridged foil faced insulation cut with a razor knife to fit all sides. Ten pound blocks would be placed in the cooler which was placed in a shaded spot out of the direct sun. That cooler was used for ice storage only, and some perishable food items and only opened when ice was needed in our smaller 75qt for daily use, which was also lined with the same foam insulation. We never ran out of ice, and had plenty left for icing the fish we brought home. Now for the kicker, separate out of the group even good friends and family who require a daily ice supply just for keeping their beer cold. Fewer is better anyway, especially when they cant help out much because of always having something in their hand. lol [/QUOTE]
