Rev 233 (see Ciclops preview http://www.ciclops.org/view/8323/Rev233 ) features a non-targeted look at Titan's leading hemisphere North Polar region looking for predicted (somewhat overdue) seasonal clouds. A quick glance at the March 6 photos (below) shows nice detail but no clouds (at least to my eye).

Nice work as usual, Mr. T cool.gif I agree there do not appear to be any obvious signs of clouds.

The circular feature north of Menvra is fascinating: it appears prominently in this earlier ISS view from 2010:

Also, it's rather prominent in the VIMS mosaic assembled from T-114 data:
