HiPOD 16 Aug 2022: On the Beauty of Martian Slope Streaks
Slope streaks are typically caused by the displacement of material, perhaps from a falling rock or bolder, that exposes the darker subsurface to the harsh Martian sunlight. Streaks generally fade over long periods of time. These streaks are notable not only for their wonderful shapes, but their interesting position on the rim of a small and ancient impact crater.

@jurban You happen to be in luck because there is derived anaglyph from this observation:

Thanks! That does help a bit.

This view would benefit from a stereoscopic photo.
I can't reconcile the flow based on gravity. It looks wind-swept.
