One of the prettiest places to camp in the dark sky area of Idaho is Stanley Lake.  2nd choice would be the west end of Alturus Lake.   Keep your pets on a leash as this is Wolf Country.  You can buy supplies, gas and propane in the town of Stanley.  You will find some snow in the shade this year in both places in June.
Sitting out side at night you will hear both wolves and coyotes.  Coyotes sound like a bunch of teenagers at a kegger, whereas wolves give one, maybe two long drawn out howls then quiet.  make sure you make your camp bear safe.

Well, I ordered a Celestron 70mm travel telescope, then went digging around the house and found an 8-32x "Halleyscope" I forgot I had, as well as 7x50, 8x30, and 12x42 binos...think I'm covered for optics lol.
