  The tropics of Mars are commonly littered with small bright 
  ripples that were somehow shaped by the wind.

o Chaos in Eridania Basin	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037142_1430

  Eridania is the name of topographically enclosed basin located 
  in the Southern highlands of Mars that has been suggested to be 
  the site of a large ancient lake or inland sea.

o Mysterious Light-Toned Deposit in Vinogradov Crater	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_037163_1590

  The southeastern floor of Vinogradov Crater is covered with several 
  mysterious light-toned, sub-meter scale "blobs" that lack obvious 
  layering.

o Overlapping Lobate Lava Flows in Daedalia Planum

  The high-resolution of HiRISE images allows for reconstruction of 
  complex volcanic surfaces including geological relationships within 
  a flow field.
