"Legends of El Pasos Mountains" explores the special bond between the people of El Paso and their mountains, through stories that have been handed down from generation to generation. Premiering in the video are two original songs, written for the program.

"Legends of El Pasos Mountains" presents the citys most famous tale of lost treasure - the legend of the Lost Padre Mine - as told by the people of El Paso. The video shows that for centuries treasure seekers may have been looking in the wrong place. "Legends of El Pasos Mountains" also looks at the unique relationship the people of El Paso have with their mountains, as they live, work and play in the Franklin mountain range. Mountain bikers test their endurance against the rocky mountain terrain. Hikers enjoy the exercise and the views, as well as the legends of ancient people and their art. And every year, hundreds of people take part in the Trans Mountain Challenge, a 12-mile run through a mile-high mountain pass.
