The Monster appears to be highly active in this region; it attacked the survivors during their mission to retrieve dynamite from the Black Rock, nearly pulling Locke underground. ("Exodus, Part 2")

Before the crash

According to Rousseau, the Dark Territory is where her science expedition first encountered the Others. Rousseau also claimed that this is where her teammates became infected with the the Sickness. One member of Rousseau's team, Montand, somehow lost his arm in the Dark Territory. ("Solitary")

The survivors of Flight 815 are known to have visited the Dark Territory on two specific occasions, both times to visit the Black Rock. The size and boundaries of the Dark Territory are unknown, so it possible the survivors may have passed through the region on other occasion.

Season One (Day 44)

Season Three (Days 88-89)

Locke led Sawyer to the Black Rock in the Dark Territory in order to manipulate him into killing Anthony Cooper. ("The Brig")
