This Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) image shows some of the troughs of the Granicus Valles system, located west of the Elysium volcanic rise near 27.1°N, 224.0°W. The floors exhibit abundant large ripple-like features deposited and shaped by wind. The dark dots on the valley floors are large boulders. The image covers an area approximately 3 km (1.9 mi) wide; sunlight illuminates the scene from the left.
