Warm Springs Reservoir is a reservoir on the boundary between Harney and Malheur counties in the U.S. state of Oregon. It is located Lua error in Module:Convert at line 1851: attempt to index local 'en_value' (a nil value). southwest of Juntura at an elevation of Lua error in Module:Convert at line 1851: attempt to index local 'en_value' (a nil value).. The lake's primary inflow and outflow are both the Malheur River.[2][4]
