An aerial view of Mount Cristo Rey and the surrounding cities.
The remains of the house sculptor Urbici Soler lived in while building the statue.
The rocky desert landscape and sparse plantlife give the Mount Cristo Rey trail a distinct, other-worldly feel.
Almost there.
One of the trail's twelve stations of the cross, part of the Via Dolorosa. Sunland Park, western El Paso, and the Franklin Mountains are in the background.
The 29 foot tall limestone Mount Cristo Rey monument, commonly called "Christ of the Rockies."
Memorial plaques of contributors to the original 1939 construction. Among them are Franklin D. Roosevelt, Manuel Camacho (former Mexican president), Pope Pius XII, and prominent Catholic clergy from around the world.
