The Belle Fourche River marks the northern edge of this landscape where the small settlement of Empire sits near the Butte and Meade county line. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of irrigation channels, including the S Canal, Perry Lateral, Meade Lateral, and Evans Lateral, which support the agricultural life of the plains. These waterworks illustrate the region's managed hydrology, redirecting flow to the surrounding sections between Ninemile Cr and Dry Cr.
