The Pit River flows through the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the volcanic topography of the Modoc National Forest meets the hydrological complexity of Big Valley. This 2015 survey reveals an environment defined by its water sources, from the expansive Big Swamp to thermal features like Bassett Hot Springs and Kellog Hot Springs. Local infrastructure reflects the agricultural and rural character of the area, centered around the settlement of Leonard and the Southard Field airstrip.
