HiPOD: Lithified Lobes

This observation features a possibly multi-layered lobe that might be ejecta from craters on southwest rim of the crater in which they occur. They could also be landslide deposits that pre-date those impacts, meaning that the ejecta had to have eroded away before re-exposing landslide lobes. Either way, the erosional expression is suggestive that the materials are perhaps lithified.
