Pelican cooler @ COSTCO

[Rat Fink]

The Helena Costco has a lot of both sizes right now. $249 for the 65 qt and $299 for the 95 qt. Even though they are heavy to start with, for me the 95 qt made sense. It's hard to argue with capacity, when you need it you need it and if you buy to small and don't have it then you are screwed. It made sense to shell out an extra 50 bucks for 30 more qts of capacity. I am not sure on their pricing and sales, but it was a good deal now so I picked one up to use for my Mountain Goat scouting and hunting trips this fall. And yes it will be cabled and locked to the truck for security and bear proofing.

Those prices are ridiculous, especially with no sales tax.

I bought a pelican two years ago and returned it. It less money but I didn't like a few features. I think the hinges are less robust. The handles are solid and awkward, folding out and heavy. The catch In my opinion have too many parts. Elastic is better.And the pelican is a little more weight. I bought a yeti and removes all markings. Just my opinion
