Desc. | Large funnel at the base of a PRF, with vertical walls on the N and W sides part-way down the funnel (there appears to be a gap between N and W walls). Cannot tell if there is much actual "pit" to this feature. There is a depression with similarly steep walls to the funnel adjacent to the SE, and a string of subtle depressions running ~100m S from there. There is a wide, shallow collapse of some sort ~200m N. |

Data Warning | No high-Sun images are non-slewed. Depths 2 and 3 are measured looking with the Sun at a slew angle of 7-8 degrees, and so are likely too low. Depth 1 is measured from top of funnel to above the W wall. Depth 2 is from N wall, Depth 3 is from W wall. |
