Sipapu Ski & Summer Resort is a ski touring destination in northern New Mexico, set at about 8,190 feet in the Camino Real Ranger District of Carson National Forest. The place has no climb, with the high and low points of the route only four feet apart, so it works as a base for longer outings rather than a destination in itself. Summer brings the mildest conditions. Typical averages from the nearby Gascon weather station run from highs of about 75°F in June to 76°F in July, while winter months see highs around 44°F and several snowy days each month. Flechado Canyon is half a mile away, and Cordova Canyon and the Rio Pueblo paddling stretch are both about 1.7 miles off. For overnight stays, Agua Piedra Campground sits about 2 miles away.
