Spring (March-May) - Spring is an amazing time here at Zapata. Coming around this time may give you the chance to see all four seasons of weather in a single week, with possible bouts of rain and snow, and temperatures dipping into the low 30s. As the sun comes out, temperatures may rise into the 60s. 

Summer (June- August) - Summer at Zapata is beautiful with every outdoor activity in full swing. Expect temperatures to range between 40 and 50 degrees overnight, warming up to approximately 80 degrees during the day. In July and August it can sometimes get as warm as 90 degrees, but cool evenings and afternoon monsoon rainstorms provide a nice balance. 

Autumn (September - November) - Fall is a secret treasure here at Zapata. Many of our guests and staff call it their favorite time of year. Sunny mild days give way to crisp evenings and chilly mornings. Temperatures start falling into the 30s overnight, while during the day the sun warms things up into the 60s.
