Ski Baja!
I did a New Years up there in 1998-1999, got down to the 20's at night, and we even found a few small hills to go sledding/tubing on  . Nothing like that though!

And as I recall we had quite the eh, campfire.......... 
It is beautiful up there in the snow; interestingly though, as Taco De Baja mentioned, the overnight temps were in the 20s, same as you're likely to
get in the summer.

My wife and I did a two night tent camping trip up there in October of 1994. The first night we woke up to find our water jugs in the back of the
pickup frozen solid. Had to put them in the cab of the truck with the heater running full bore to melt enough water to make coffee. I brought one
inside the tent the second night, which helped a little. It was so cold that my wife put on all of the clothes she had packed for the trip before
getting in the sleeping bag. I had a great time, but she wasn't thrilled. Come to think of it, that was the last time she ever agreed to tent camp.
Now she just sends me off with the kids: "Have a good time, buh bye . . . ."
One particularly memorable moment from that trip. We were completely alone in the meadows where we camped, or so I thought. I got up the first crisp
and sunny morning, grabbed a book and shovel and went off to take my morning, uh, "constitutional." Found a great secluded spot among some boulders
where a couple of fallen logs provided appropriate seating, and I settled in to turn a few pages, as it were. I wasn't halfway down the page when I
heard a loud SNAP! and nearly jumped (all the way) out of my shorts. About twenty feet in front of me was a large steer chewing his cud and staring
at me like I was a turd in a swimming pool. Scared the crap out me, you might say.

He was just helping to make your job easier. See even steers are friendlier in Baja.
