I am familiar with the entire area, just not on a bike.
I just Googled Selkirk Loop - That looks like a great ride!
I haven't ridden that loop, but I've ridden in the vicinity. I remember riding through Sandpoint. I may have ridden on more of those roads than I remember. We had no trouble with the roads or finding good places to camp. There may be some alternative routes though WA and ID. It's a sound route. I'm sure you noticed a guided trip does the same loop, so it must be a good route!
We rode by Boundary Dam, it looks like it's a side trip from the loop: (I think I remember riding across the dam - you might not be able to do that now)
Somewhere in Canada - might be on the loop:
Canada: (I think Hwy 1
A or 31 near Kokanee Provincial Park)
