Custer State Park in June

We are looking to go to Custer State Park in mid-June 2009 and I was wondering what the weather would be like. We are going to be tent camping. My oldest son will just be back from six months in the Middle East and I wanted to be sure we did not freeze him out. Thanks,

Mid-June is a usually pretty good time. It could be cold at night but at least it won%26#39;t be too hot. You%26#39;ll certainly want to bring jackets and throw in some fall/spring type gear.





Enter Custer, SD and your dates into this website to get an idea of the averages. You%26#39;ll see that lows in the 40s are average and it could dip into the 30s.

Which campground are you planning to stay at? Sylvan Lake is the highest/coldest at over 6,000 feet. The others are generally around 4,500-5,000 feet and a little warmer.

We were thinking about the State Game Lodge area.




Not to mention the possibility for some good sized thunderstorms. May and June are when I usually camp and you%26#39;ll definitely need some warm gear for the night times.
