That's a shot of the #13 green from right below the tee; you can see the border between the US and Mexico, the Rio Grande/Rio Bravo, in the distance. 13 is a 167-yard par 3, with a 100-ft elevation change.
That huge mountain you see directly ahead...
...that's Mexico.
This is #6; it's bordered on three sides by creek and the mountains you see reside in Big Bend National Park.
The name of the course is Black Jack's Crossing and it lives on the 27,000 acres of the Lajitas Golf Resort and Spa in Lajitas, Texas...
...its architect is some dude named Lanny Wadkins.
If you're big enough to play it, you might also be big enough to fly-in. In that case, the Lajitas Airport 7500' runway will be an easily spotted and welcomed sigh...
...(it only exists, by the way, to serve the Lajitas Golf Resort and Spa):
The course, of course, is named for US Army Major General "Black Jack" Pershing, who was sent down here by President Wilson to exterminate a Villista named Pancho. A freshed-faced West Point grad named Patton led some of America's last cavalary charges under Pershing's command during this, the Mexican Expedition. Lt. Patton also led America's very first armored vehicle attack (consisting of 3 Dodge armored cars), during which he personally killed Villista leader Julio Cárdenas and two other Villistas; legend tells that Patton carved 3 notches into the butts of the twin Colt Peacemakers he carried to represent his dirty deed that day. Pershing was so impressed with Patton with his attack that he nicknamed him "Bandito"; by the end of the campaign, Pershing had promoted Patton to captain and invited him to lead Pershing’s Headquarters Troop once they left Mexico.
