Block Ice ??

by Adam

Jul 22, 2011

So, i'm getting ready to leave on an epic 2 week camping trip, from SF to the San Juan islands. and i'm having difficulity finding Block ice. Finnaly found some after like 6 places but makes me think i'm going to have trouble finding it along the way.. 7-11 used to allways have it, but the two i went to did not, but they had a sign for it next to the bagged ice.

 

any ideas?

 

leaving tomarrow, and not sure how much internet acess i will have on the trip, so any fast advice would be great.

thanks

    Have to laugh, I bought a chunck of dry ice (1 lb) to ship some fish to Michigan, by the time I was ready to ship the bag was empty - it disappeared in the freezer.

    Probably because you're not supposed to store dry ice in the freezer. The air circulation makes it sublime more quickly.

    I knocked on their door, but they said that they only had cubed ice available.

    check on fish houses or bait shops.
