...a quick nav-cam pano from sol 3036. So cool to be in the creek! Or standing in the middle of the street. I want to look over my shoulder for the bulldozer that carved this thing. The latest processes shaping it appear to post-date the original layering in the trench, development of the light-toned upper surface to either side, and formation of the rough terrain surrounding Cape York. Fascinating. |

Fascinating. Awesome pan, walfy! I'm assuming this feature is an expansion-related dip-slip fault? |

That's a beauty!!! I NEVER get tired of the odd ways these sulfate-rich rocks erode!

Lots of nice new rock shots coming down. Here's one in particular: Looks like a reverted crocodile. -------------------- |

Opened a new thread to cover the trek by the east side. New pictures and discussion should be done there but everything related to Whim Creek should still be posted here.

It's not too late, I think.
