Desert Greens Should Never Be This Pure: Adventures in Golf Season 6, Episode 4

"Welcome to Marfa, a remote, rugged and unexpectedly trendy Texas town with an artistic side. While Marfa has become famous for its high-end art exhibits, notably by the minimalist artist Donald Judd, there's also a 9-hole golf course with an interesting backstory.

Marfa Municipal has the distinction of being the highest golf course in Texas, but here's the kicker; this desert course is ran entirely by TWO guys - Ernest, who oversees the Marfa muni operation, and Mario, who maintains the land.

On this Adventures In Golf, presented by United Airlines, Erik Anders Lang meets the staff of two, as well as three Marfa municipal members to see what the course has meant to them.

Lastly, it wouldn't be a trip to Marfa without trying to get a glimpse of the famous Marfa Lights. Erik tries his luck but we can neither confirm nor deny what he saw."
