Sprague Lake dominates the southern landscape of this terrain where the high plateau of the Inland Northwest meets the channeled scablands. The small settlement of Pifer sits along the southwestern shore, marking a point of interest for local historians studying the rural communities of the Big Bend country. The water system is remarkably complex for this arid region, featuring Eastman Pond, Clear Lake, and the winding path of Crab Cr along with various tributaries like Buttermilk Cr and Negro Creek.
