What is the weather like there in late July?

Awsume  :thumbsup:  I think the first IRG 1.0 was one of the hottest in the intire U.S. I know Phoenix was very hot when we left and so was Malibu, CA. All of inland California was in the 100's. We stayed close to the beach so the nights where great, arriving at Pamplin it was very nice and in the trees my wife and I couldn't be in there long because it felt cold to us desert dwellers. We parked outside the trees for sun because of warmth and to use our solar power to it's potential. There was a bit of fog in the morning but overall couldn't have been any better. One of the best gatherings I've been to. And the best dutch oven eaten ever that I have tasted.  :thumbsup:

We have a pretty mild climate all year round here.  The temperatures in the grove area ( July ) down at Pamplin rarely gets above the 70's F.  Last year when the heat wave was weighing down the rest of the southwest, we enjoyed a range of upper 60's to low 70's in the open areas.  In the trees, the temperatures were mid-60's, dropping down to mid-50's during the evening.  The mornings may have FOG, but that's a necessity for the redwoods, and sometimes it creeps back again in the evening.  All in all, it is pretty darn comfortable in the afternoon and early evenings.  A sweatshirt or lightweight jacket would be a good idea for those cooler times.  Because we are on the northern coast of California, rain is always a possibility at this time, but we hope not.  Even then, temps would probably stay around  50 something.  Our weather is considered part of the "Mediterrean Climate", seasons being apparent as they change throughout the year, but never too extreme.  At least not yet....global weirding may catch up to us in the next few decades, and when it does, I expect a lot of redwood trees will not be able to adapt.  ANYway, check the web link to the weather on the website.
