The I-40 corridor through New Mexico runs past Ute Lake State Park, a state park managed by State Park and Recreation. The corridor itself is a stretch of climbing country along the highway, so the route here is more of a destination strip than a single trail. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Tucumcari show April and October highs around 74°F with lows in the low 40s, while July and August average highs near 95°F. Revuelto Creek, about 8 miles away, offers canoeing for anyone wanting to pair a drive with time on the water.
