Ja, Joe!

The closest is Hoedspruit, with lots of shops. It is about 80 minutes from Orpen gate, assuming your driving has calmed down.

It is north of the Orpen turnoff, though.

You still have not told me where you are entering the Park, Joe

At Orpen?

Sorry, but someone else must help you, I do not know the shops along that route

i think im just going to buy the meat before hand and try and keep it frozen(and vacuum packed)

my driving is still boss

Joe, if you pack your frozen meat in a cooler box with ice blocks and keep the box closed it should stay frozen until you reach camp. We normally leave at midnight, and only check into camp at 2pm and our meat has never defrosted.

[JoeKing]

thats what i was thinking also.

at least we not camping so we'll have a freezer to keep the meat frozen

[Richprins]

Ag no then it's not a difficult problem, is it?

[JoeKing]

but then i'll need to get another cooler box.

^nights food and 6 days beer wont fit in one,.......

[Flutterby]

You don't need to keep all your beer in a cooler box. We pack all our food into a large cooler box, and put drinks in a small one with ice. As soon as you get to camp put your food into the fridge/freezer and then fill up the rest of the space with drinks.

Let him suffer...
