Geography
Climate
El Salto has a subtropical highland climate (Köppen Cwb). Thanks to its location in the high plateau of the Sierra Madre Occidental it receives abundant rain during the summer months; enough for it to avoid the semi-arid (BSk) classification found further inland. Due to its location the town experiences mild but rainy summers, and relatively dry and chilly winters with freezing night temperatures. Winter months witness the occasional snow storm.
