A Delta River Near Hp ? Options

[climber]

While focusing on Home Plate, I checked out the "Where are the rovers now" page yesterday on the JPL rover site. If you look closely to the attached file, the issued picture quote xxxxNew MexicoXXXX on the back and to the right of the picture. Very close and on top of where "New Mexico" is written there is a place (approx 5-600 m to the east of HP), that remind me a picture from the Huygens probe on Titan. It's a kind of a small "river delta". My best guess for sure is that it has been done by dust devil, but why dust devils will unit this way? It doesn't make sense to me. Did somebody ever sew this ? (use 204kB definition to see it).

I think I know what feature you're refering to, but I think it's simply the edge of a ridge line, and not a small river channel as you're suggesting. The difference in brightness between various units can give a false impression of height I think.

Doug,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Nevertheless, I join here the picture of the place to be sure we understand each other. Still look like a delta or plenty of ridges...
Just a little back ground. I'm part of the 1/3 of the humanity still alive that witness Neil's first step on the moon "live". Always been interested in space, I traveled all the way to Pasadena to be with the Planetary Society for Voyager II encounter with Neptune and again for Spirit landing (what a great night!). So far I was following THE story on JPL's, MMB, Planetary blog's, etc but was not aware or your web site. I hope I can share now with everybody.
All the best and thank you for your wonderfull baby.
