I'm wondering how many coolers of what size are required to fit an entire elk in. I've fit a small whitetail buck, quartered with bone in, in a Coleman 70 quart cooler, with regular ice.
What kind of volume would it take to fit a whole elk. Let's assume an average sized bull. Boned out quarters or bone in, whatever you have experience with.
Also, it seems a lot of people use frozen milk jugs as ice blocks, but doesn't that take up a ton of valuable cooler space? Seems keeping blocks in there would reduce your space by about half. How many jugs per cooler do you use?
