HiPOD: An Inverted Channel West of Idaeus Fossae

This observation shows a multithreaded, inverted fluvial channel located to the west of Idaeus Fossae. The formation may date back to the mid-Noachian epoch, billions of years ago. There is also evidence for lateral channel migration and is possibly associated with fan deposits in an impact crater to the east.
