Jackson Summit and the high desert plateaus of southeastern Malheur County are defined by a complex network of seasonal water management and natural springs. This high-altitude landscape is dotted with vital water sources such as Jackson Creek Spring, Potato Water Spring, and Cottonwood Spring, which sustain life in the arid basin. Artificial impoundments like Jackson Summit Reservoir, Upper Tenmile Reservoir, and the curiously named Hole-in-the-Ground Reservoir indicate the region's reliance on water catchment for ranching operations, accessible via thoroughfares like Jackson Creek Rd and Mouque Ranch Rd.
