Great video! Ive practiced a similar method of freezing precooked food, water bottles, gatorades, etc and keeping one cooler for frozen food and another for drinks. Thanks for sharing good information.
That was very very good cooler tip man. You are right about the colors on the cooler man. It all depends on how long we are kayak camping 🏕 . Sometimes we have food that needs to be cook & sometimes we just have Mountain house food. I have 6 boys & a Granddaughter & everyone have there own cooler. It's a lot of ice but we get it done. We just went kayak camping 🏕 last weekend for the holidays. We kayak 42 miles me & my whole entire family & family friends. It was 18 of us all kayaking. Good times & Memories. Good video tips. Thanks you for sharing this video buddy.
Great question! Oversight on our part. Dry ice is very problematic to the point we don't even consider it anymore. It's so much colder it can damage containers and coolers. Dry ice also doesn't leave ice melt since it's a vapor which will actually hinder long term cold storage in a small cooler.
To add to Ozarks response, anything in direct contact with the dry ice can have a likelihood of becoming freezer burnt and quickly as well. Another point worth bringing up is the gasses produced by dry ice cause pressure within a sealed environment, that pressure can damage the seal of your cooler and the ice can hurt you as touching dry ice with bare hands while reaching into the cooler is a no go. In my experience dry ice only lasts 72 hours under optimal conditions and is just not worth the risks involved unless your well insulating it for a few day transportation of something that has to remain frozen, like ice-cream.
I’ve used dry ice in a separate styrofoam cooler for a long ride to the put in to keep something frozen. Then transferred the frozen food to another compact cooler where I knew we would be eating it that night. We are bringing a soft Yeti cooler for some beers and burgers for night 1 and maybe night 2 of our trip this week. We typically eat fresh food or freeze dried meals on most of our trips.
It's definitely a good tool if you know what you're doing and have the right stuff. It's definitely not for us, and may not be suited for the average or casual camper.
How do you guys not have more subscribers and views? This is gonna be the best quality video on luxury kayak pack out that I’ve ever seen.
Thanks for the kind words! More videos incoming and so maybe more subs 🤷♂️
Your last video was cool and I asked for a cooler one this time. Nice 👍
🍆

Love me a steak over the fire with some roast potatoes done in the fire as well.
So good! Especially for b-days 🤪
