Here is an image which I think is from Mars Odyssey, but I'm not certain. It is from one of the orbiters. Thanks to a friend in another forum for pointing it out.

It shows a dark, very close to circular, ring near the extremities of the polar cap.

It may be that this feature has already been discussed here, if so can someone please point me to the discussion. Otherwise, I am curious to know what you think may have caused this.
