Sierra De Cristo Rey

The Mountain of Christ the King looms above El Paso at a point where the territories of Texas, Mexico and New Mexico meet. Prominent on the 4,576-foot summit is a massive monument of Christ on the Cross by artist Urbici Soler, built of Cordova cream limestone, quarried near Austin. Not recommended to climb except during the Pilgrimage the last Sunday in October.
