HiPOD 13 Apr 2023: Ridges along an Escarpment

This observation targets an escarpment (steep slope) along a graben (depression) in the Terra Sabaea highlands. The light-toned graben floor bedrock appears to be composed of a layered material. This observation seeks to characterize the shape of the sinuous ridges at the meter-scale, as well as develop geologic context for their formation.
