Hike up to the snow level. Then you have all the refrigeration you need. Plus, you should be doing this anyway. My theory is that the high altitude country is only open for hiking for a short time each summer, and therefore should not be wasted. So if you have to hike really high up to reach snow, then it's the time of year to hike really high up. A bear cannister is helpful for overnite food storage on snow, but is not necessary. Just double up a couple of ziplock bags and fill them with snow, add the bag of snow to your food bag, and you have a cooler.
Powdered milk can be fixed with a couple drops of vanilla.
Awesome, thanks for the hint! Cinnamon might do it, too, but probably not the flavor I'm going for... Milkman's definitely the best I've found, and very convenient in the individual packages.

I've taken eggs in a "crush-proof" container, hooked a rubber band around them and put them in a creek (with a cord, of course).
On the other hand, in my travels to Europe I noticed that eggs are generally found on the shelf vice in a refrigerator...
Beer I'm alway hesitant to leave in a creek unless well hidden-- a lesson learned the hard way by coming back from a climb and finding my anticipated Coors missing in action.....
