Barren Valley and the surrounding high desert of Malheur County define this 2020 landscape, where water is the primary architect of the terrain. The topography is marked by significant ephemeral features, including the large Turnbull Lakebed, Piute Lake Bed, and Duck Creek Lakebed. These basins, along with the Dowell Reservoir, illustrate the precarious nature of water management in this arid region. The high ground is dominated by Dowell Butte and the long stretch of Duck Pond Ridge.
