  At high latitudes every winter carbon dioxide condenses from Mars'
  atmosphere onto the surface forming a seasonal polar cap.

o Beautiful Butterfly Crater (HiWish Granted Again)

  This observation fulfills a HiWish request from a member of the public.

o Banded Bedrock in Terra Sabaea

  The ridges or bright or dark lines that cut across the layers mark faults,
  places where the crust fractured and accommodated motions.

o Stone Circles
