    Yes Bill, these are spider channels, but a 'body' and legs has not formed.When I comment, I tend to hashtag them as 'spider channels' rather than spiders, but I'm sure we all have our ways of marking them. the important thing (I think) is that they are marked as erosion channels due to the release of gasses caused by sublimation of CO2. I Hope you spotted the great boulder lower right of centre! 😃 ~Pete
