HiPOD 22 Aug 23: Candidate Lake Deposits

In this observation, we want to take a look at candidate lake deposits fed by alluvial fans. High resolution will help us to check for layers, layer tilts, to test this lacustrine hypothesis. Tilts more than approximately 2 degrees suggest not lacustrine, but rather distal alluvial origins.
