About this image

Today's VIS image shows a small section of Capri Chasma. Landslide deposits dominate this part of Capri Chasma. The downslope movement of materials flowed all the way to the center of the chasm, with the one from the northern cliff overlapping one from the southern cliff. Radial grooves and lobate margins are common on martian landslides.
