In the image below, I see what looks like the type of crossbedding that was seen in Eagle crater. The rock on the left, about half way down looks like it has the 'Smiles' that were discribed by Steve in the press conference that seems so long ago, now.

Thought I'd open that up for debate. Maybe get our minds off the stuck arm for a while.

That is an interesting area, and one that has been discussed earlier:

Cosmic Rocker noted odd features here.

There are unusual bedding features and equally unusual weathering.

I've attached an L257 color image and an L7 with a low lighting angle.

This is an area where you can kick just about any rock and come up with something weird. Attached is the "cowlick" rock found by Atomoid...
