This observation shows a wide, layered ridge in eastern Arabia Terra. It might be comprised of multiple superposing branches, and is likely an inverted channel or possibly a distributary fan feature. It could be Noachian in age (3.7 billion years ago) and has been incised by a later valley, indicating this region underwent multiple phases of fluvial processes.
