I use a Coleman Extreme 70qt cooler.  Room for all the drinks and food
and a couple of 10lb BLOCKS of ice.  Top it off with a bag or two of
cubes, and it's good for 4 days in the heat, depending on how often you
get in and out of it.  And it's a great step for getting to the top
bunk.  There are better coolers out there, but they're about 3X the price.

Reno?  Sheesh, I thought you were going someplace Warm...
