The Pelican 250QT Elite Cooler is the granddaddy of all Pelican Coolers. This is the largest cooler that Pelican offers, and its extremely roomy interior is surrounded by 2-inch thick insulation that keeps your goods colder longer, touting 10+ day ice retention that blows away the competitors in real-world conditions. Transporting the 250QT is easy; grab the sturdy molded handles on either side and take it wherever your adventure brings you. Engineers at Pelican worked in the fine details you expect from Pelican products, such as push-and-pull latches, tie-downs, and a tethered drain plug all in a package that certified Grizzly Proof by the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee. The best part? It’s guaranteed for life by Pelican’s unrivaled lifetime warranty.
