camping trip end of july

We are planning on a trip up to sandpoint this july. Thinking of camping at round lake and explore the area. The one thing on the list is sliverwood theme park and some hiking. Any help would be great on things to do.

Its a quick trip into Sandpoint from Round Lake so I would spend a day there, lots of shopping/galleries, nice museum (www.bonnercountyhistory.org), there is also a boat cruise available (www.lakependoreillecruises.com). If you are interested in gambling you could also drive up to Bonners Ferry(45 minutes) and go to the Kootenai Tribal Casino (www.kootenairiverinn.com). In July outdoors will be the great attraction, numerous hiking opportunites in the Selkirk Mountains north of Sandpoint and the Priest Lake Area, here is a good hiking guide (fs.fed.us/ipnf/…list.html).

Thank you so much. Another question. What%26#39;s the weather like. We live on Mt hood, so the days are 70ish and cool at night in july. It seems to me you days are a bit hotter. I have hard the bugs come out as well. Thanks again for all you suggestions.

The official averages for Sandpoint are July average high 82, July average low 49, August average high 81, August average low 47. Typically high%26#39;s in the low to mid 80%26#39;s are common but we can run into a few days of 90%26#39;s, all will be with low humidity. Regardless of the heat during the day it generally cools down nicely at night espically if you are away from the towns. We do have some bugs early in the summer, they tend to die off in late summer. Another activity suggestion is Schweitzer ski area near Sandpoint does have some summer activities (summer.schweitzer.com).
