    On the HiRISE JPEG rgpcol for this image, about a third way down the strip on the transition in colour from light to dark, there are series of what appear to be shallow terraces. They extend over the width of the transition, getting fainter as the get into the dark zone. Are these SPLD's?

    Image centred on -85 deg and 95 degE, right on the edge of a 'canyon'. http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/171411main_pia09224-thick-annot-516.jpg so probably an area of SPLD exposure.
