“Sagada is a tributary of the Chico River. There are two major river systems in the Sagada ancestral domain. One starts from the northern area, runs through the Bomod-ok Falls and passes through the eastern area. The Mabileng Irrigation, the largest irrigation system in Northern Sagada is sourced from Bomod-ok and irrigates the payeos(rice paddies) in Aguid, Pide, Fidelisan and Tanulong. The other system starts from Bangaan, traverses the western baranggays through the southern area and eventually connects to the Chico River at the junction in Malitep.
It is the main source for Irrigation and domestic water supply for the west-central and southern barangays. Both rivers drain into the Chico River”
