[QUOTE="mnoland30, post: 1607973, member: 29323"] We went on a 10 day hunt in southern NM in Sept. I had 40 lb. block of ice in rectangular bucket that Costco laundry soap comes in. We put a piece of dry ice on top of the ice. We stored the 150 qt. Igloo in the shade, put a 3" thick piece of foam on top and covered it with canvas. My buddy shot his deer the 3rd day, and we boned it, garbage bagged it, and put it in the cooler. The dry ice was gone, but the ice had not started to melt yet. I shot my deer on the 10th day, and we did the same. No problem at all. I like the bucket because it keeps the meat dry. Water on my meat reminds me of how they make pink slime. Be advised, some garbage bags are chemically treated to control smells. I've used the same method on a 5 day hunt for oryx in May when high temps were 95 degrees. It works. Boning the meat is key, because it cools much faster. [/QUOTE]
