The Bitterroot River valley is defined here by complex irrigation systems and the Northern Pacific railroad corridor during the mid-1960s. Engineering for agriculture is prominent, evidenced by the Bitterroot Irrigation District Supply Canal and the Bitterroot Irrigation District Siphon, which moved water across this Montana landscape to support settlements like Charlos Heights and University Heights. The town of Darby serves as a hub near the southern edge of the sheet, situated where Tin Cup Creek and Fern Creek emerge from the surrounding highlands.
