A couple of new color images were released today by the HiRISE team, including a looking at landslides along the Zunil crater rim and gas springs in the warming Southern Polar Cap. The Zunil view looks especially interesting (and I am not just saying that because my advisor has done a lot of work on that fresh impact crater). I think I will download that one.

I think these channels only resemble dendritic channels in their forms. In fact, many of them define the boundaries of polygonally fractured dry-ice surficial plates, a patterning not normally noted in dendritic channel formation.
