Kind of the same as hanging an an animal after a kill. You don't want the meat to freeze thaw , freeze thaw and so on, meat kept chilled , preferably just above freezing Wil stay fresh for days as long as you don't get it wet. Back in the day the cowboys up here would hang there elk for 2 weeks to age and tenderize there meat, they would cut the green off, and tender as heck, anyway keep frozen the whole time all good if you think it will thaw chill Change ice dayly. And yes normally extention cord or inverter on truck. Small generator running while driving. Or dry ice and plug in when you can. I think your over thinking it. Your gonna be fine.

Have a blessed Resurrection Day!

Anyone have a bow mounted trolling motor with Spot Lock on it? Looking to pick one up this week.

Proposed regulate out. Actual regulations should be released in the next 2-3 weeks

It was an interesting day.......I mean I have been pulled over for lots of things but never my windshield........then further up the hill a truck pulling a camp trailer started moving over to the fast lane when the nose of my truck was about even with his bumper, my wife coulda touched the trailer out her window......luckily I have enough shoulder, the dude literally pulled into the median as I hit my brakes and started a u-turn............I don't think he ever saw me and I'm lucky to be alive!!! Gotta love the rim road traffic!!!

I got pulled over yesterday on Bee Line Hwy right past Gilbert exit! Cop rolled up behind me, started to pass then pulled back. Gave me a repair order for my cracked windshield. I told him I was waiting for winter to be over because of all the crap on the highway. He held both hands open, looked up at the sky and said, "It feels like winter is over!!!! 77 here in Snowflake today, it will melt off fast and I guess he was right.............

there's still 18-24 inches of snow on the ground in many places. It will melt off quick if we keep this warm weather. Hopefully they'll open early

Called Coconino and Apache Sigreaves today. Both said roads will open in early May. Hard to believe with it being 75 up there today.

This took an interesting and unexpected turn to the literal.

That makes perfect sense, now I understand. Unfortunately the meat will already be frozen so there's not much I can really do about that. So I guess regardless I really want to make sure it stays frozen 100% now. I am definitely the King of overthinking, as you can probably tell from these questions. I do have a "fridge" for the vehicle I use when we go on long camping trips, but that by no means will hold even 1/8th of a cow, and that vehicle is more for 4x4 so it gets probably 10mpg if I'm lucky. Vehicle we're taking gets a good 33mpg. Just been debating the water bottles frozen vs gel packs vs ice in a trash bag. Thinking the frozen bottles is likely the best option, but then IF I do run into an issue, my next move is the question. I believe I was wrong about the packaging of the meat. It's not in vacuum sealed containers, but rather the freezer wrap paper, so I don't want any ice melting and leaking through that.

How much are you wanting for it? I like Franchi.

The Franchi is great also. I had one in 28g for a few years and sold it to a fellow CWT member only because it was tearing up my thumb pushing in the shells.

I went to willow to fish yesterday. Gate was still closed. We hiked in from 260, lake was 98% frozen over. We fished a small melted area and caught nothing.

Happy Easter

Dang you're right... I think I was half asleep that night ... fixed ... Free bump

Except you need 2 people people to carry the RTIC
