About this map

Harney Valley is the focal point of this arid basin study in eastern Oregon, revealing a landscape defined by water management and drainage. The terrain is crisscrossed by an extensive network of human-made infrastructure designed to control seasonal runoff and support livestock, including numerous Check Dams and individual Check Dam installations. This intricate system of water control illustrates the challenges of ranching and land use in the high desert, where every drop of moisture is carefully directed.
