MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES

o Gullies Old and New Near the Argyre Region	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038931_1355

  As gullies form on slopes, sediment can become deposited 
  to form lobe-shaped fans.

o Higher Terrain between Sinai and Solis Plana	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038932_1635

  The area is riddled with faults and ridges that look like 
  uncovered magma dikes.

o Filled Crater and Scallops	
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_038967_1230

  These scallop formations might be possibly due to ground ice 
  sublimation.

o Pits in Hale Crater Ejecta

  The pits visible here aren't impact craters. The material 
  they're embedded into is ejecta from a large crater called Hale.
