Van sits at the junction of high-desert drainage systems and forest boundaries in Harney County. This landscape is defined by its water sources, where dozens of named springs such as Basco Spring, Little Briches Spring, and McEwen Spring support life in an otherwise arid environment. The transition from the open flats of Potts Field to the timbered slopes of the Malheur National Forest is marked by significant topographical features like Capps Mtn.
