I never "crutch", and love the enhanced bark. I generally smoke butts 14-16 hours, and pull @ 202 to rest for an hour in a cooler.
Definitely lay a couple towels on the bottom of a cooler, wrap meat in foil, and cover with a couple of towels...this will hold temp for 4-5 hours easily, been there done that.
