You can also look at e1301971, which is a reimaging of e1201762, which itself was a reimaging of m0902042.

Try and find 50 places where the spider branches move against gravity, that should be easy.

The next one is the one I found that Arthur C. Clarke became interested in:

Hi Greg!

Sorry, there seems to be a slight misunderstanding - I used the term
areology (the "geology" of Mars), not aerology as I think you read it, as a
term to emphasize the alien-ness of trying to understand the actions of
weathering in a low insolation/low atmosphere/low temperature/low water
environment. I wasn't suggesting wind effects here.

Ok, well, that changes things "considerably". ;-)

Interesting stuff. Now all I have to do is mentally turn my crater inside out.

Regards,

Andy
