Hickey Basin defines the central topography of this Malheur County landscape, where the seasonal management of water is evident through a sophisticated network of small-scale impoundments. The terrain is characterized by high-desert features such as the Swamp Creek Buttes and Dry Buttes, with water drainage centered around Hickey Cr and Granite Cr. The prevalence of named catchments like Bar Heart Reservoir, Andy Wilson Reservoir, and New Visher Reservoir indicates the critical importance of water rights and livestock management in this arid stretch of Oregon.
