Silver Creek is an stream of Oregon which drains a portion of the endorheic Harney Basin to Harney Lake. Arising in the Blue Mountains, it flows generally southeast, although much of the stream is intermittent. The Silver Creek Volcanic Field is associated with the creek's watershed. ==Course== From its headwaters in the southern Blue Mountains, Silver Creek flows south through the Ochoco National Forest and is feed by tributaries and, at the base of the mountains, large springs feed the creek.〔 The creek meanders through a broad alluvial plain and turns southeast near Chickahominy Reservoir, traveling through the unincorporated community of Riley, where it is crossed by Highway 20 and Highway 395, respectively.〔 Past Riley Silver Creek flows through a canyon with tall walls made of volcanic basalt.〔 The creek is impounded several miles downstream, forming Moon Reservoir.〔 It then splits into two streams; one portion heads southwest into the usually dry Silver Lake, while the other portion flows southeast through Warm Springs Valley into the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, and finally Harney Lake.〔〔
