At the bottom of Schweitzer
Mountain, in the town of Sandpoint
itself, an average of 72 inches of snow falls each winter.
Sandpoint
presents its visitors and residents
alike a very relaxed, laid-back feel, particularly during its
Hometown Christmas holiday season when candles burn bright in the
windows of shops and office buildings. Meanwhile, out in the
landscape surrounding Sandpoint, hikers, skaters and cross-country
skiers enjoy the overpowering sensation of delightful silence, one
of the most highly sought commodities in today’s fast-paced society.
