Adventure into 1880
A letter from the trailblazer:
El Paso Verse was born in my imagination as an escape from modern day reality as I sought to capture profound cinematic moments near the U.S. and Mexico borderlands of the 1880s.
While it's been possible to recreate these moments on film, there is a deeper yearning to discover something more... What if there was a place—100% authentic to that time period—where you could not only experience it on the silver screen but walk the land yourself, feeling the elements with all your senses and live your story as if it would have been in the year 1880?
There is a way to deliver this adventure to those who seek it. And I believe there is no one who wouldn't want to step into this world, if only for a moment... For those ready to immerse themselves in a longer, more profound experience, we invite you to become part of the El Paso Verse—a world where you can spend years living the adventure.
A land so vast that traveling across it on horseback would take days in any direction, or you could choose to hop aboard an interconnected steam train to visit distant towns. It's a place where you can choose to thrive as an entrepreneur, build a business, maybe fall in love, make meaningful friendships or simply explore as a man or woman passing through it.
The vision for El Paso Verse is multi-faceted, and over the coming years, it needs to be developed collectively as a community.
This document serves as an overview for the ecosystem that will power and propel this vision into reality — a vision that I believe soon will become one of the most sought-after destinations on the planet.
