Yep, combo of both above ideas. I beat feet back to WI with a quartered elk from the CO Flat Tops. Constructed containers or big friggin ice-chests, either one. The dry ice slabs go on top of the inside of the container wrapped in paper grocery bags (remember them?) or similar. The paper protects the meat from the ice burn as well as allowing you to handle it in the first place. Duct tape all seams of the container.

RESIST temptation to "check on it" and then drive it like ya stole it.

Good hunting!
