Assuming you are talking So Cal where it is hot. My routing is cooler in the truck with frozen one gallon water bottles. Depending on the hike get the deer quartered bone in or deboned in game bags and into the cooler asap!
I tell the Indian guide Eldon, hurry get that elk boned out and in ice chest covered in ice. then grab an adult beverage and fire up a cigar. I mean I pulled the trigger and dropped her, you don't expect me to touch her to do you.
get it skinned as soon as you can to cool it down.
if you're packing out, quarter out or de-bone then into game bags.
get on ice.
if you have a short drag, gut it and put blocks or bagged ice in cavity for ride home
Once its home, I hang in fridge two week then break it down. Roast, steaks, grind and will cube neck meat for stews .
DON'T FORGET THE HEART!!

I carry a base Kamp tarp. Quarter and take any other meat I can. I put the tarp in the shade and place meat on the tarp to cool while quartering. Then I put it in game bags and hang it in the shade to cool. Once meat is no longer hot I pack it in my pack and carry it out unless I'm staying in the mountains over night then I leave it hanging. I keep frozen water bottles in a ice chest. They are smaller than gallons. I will line the bottom of the ice chest then lay meat in layering with more frozen water bottles. This cools both sides of the meat and let's a little air through.
