This remarkable sinuous rille system, with its accompanying mare sinuous ridges, is situated near the lunar crater Herigonius to the north-east of Gassendi between the Mare Humorum basin and the southern Oceanus Procellarum. This terrain includes features formed and modified by volcanism in addition to numerous primary and secondary impact craters. Past flooding by basaltic lava throughout the region together with the fairly high density of small impact craters on the resulting mare surfaces suggests a long and complex history of both endogenic and exogenic activities.
