Franklin Mountains Postcard
The Franklin Mountains are located primarily in far west Texas but extend into southern New Mexico. The range is approximately 23 miles long and 3 miles wide. The mountains rise 3,400' above the surrounding city of El Paso. The highest peak is North Franklin Mountain which stands 7,191 feet above sea level. The Franklin Mountains are named after Benjamin Franklin Coons who, in the 1850's, owned much of the land that is now known as El Paso. http://www.summitpost.org/franklin-mountains/472740
