Also an extrem ice chest or marine grade cooler with better insulation
will keep it frozen longer
Some chest rated at 5 to 7 days to keep ice cold so these should keep
ice cream frozen for 24h
Thank you for the Anza Borrego Desert idea I was tired of Los Angeles
beach , I may be heading to the desert this weekend
Any advise or good spot to visit on Anza Borrego Desert

Thank you
EL
