Gullies on the Northwest Rim of Hale Crater
This image covers part of the northwest rim of Hale Crater. Gullies have formed down the interior rim of the crater in this location.
Bright material deposits are evident along the walls of some gullies. These deposits might be the result of transport or exposure of finer-grained sediments, variations in the brightness of dust or materials, or the presence of ice or fresh deposits within the gullies.
Image cutout is less than 1 km (under 1 mi) across and the spacecraft altitude was 255 km (159 mi). For full observation details including images with scale bars, visit the source link.
