The valley is separated into two sections north and south, with an unnamed badlands region, at 40°07′45″N 114°07′59″W (though labelled as such) between eastern mountain ranges on its central-east perimeter. These badlands are on the Nevada/Utah border and southeast of Ferber Hills a small range of hills, mostly in Elko County, Nevada and partially in Tooele County, Utah.
A large two-lobed playa region makes up most of the south valley region, and can be easily seen from surrounding mountain ridgelines.
