Can you freeze hard boiled eggs?

In my frenzy to get food ready by our Friday departure I boiled 5 dozen eggs, which I'm going to package in seal-a-meal pouches. After I boiled them up I realized I should have done that the night before we leave, not now, a week early.

Will they keep in the fridge until Friday and still keep in the cooler during burningman? If not, will freezing change the texture in a weird way? I'm going to just try it with one and see how it goes but words of wisdom will be appreciated just the same!

    saw this online about eggs:

    Yes, but NOT in their shells. Hardcooked eggs will have tough whites.

    The best answer I have heard on freezing eggs is to do this:

    Break however many eggs you want to freeze into a bowl and mix together.

    Pour egg mix into plastic ice cube trays and freeze overnight. The next morning, transfer to freezer baggies. 2 frozen egg cubes equals 1 egg. Always thaw the egg in the refrigerator before using. Wash out the ice cube tray with hot soapy water after having the raw egg in it.
