A snow-white fairy tale in the territory with eternal snows welcomes lovers of adrenaline and extreme sports. Together with them, we will not be afraid of even the most sheer and gentle slopes. The inventory consists of such items for skiing as alpine skiing, snowboarding, as well as more exotic paragliding and wingsuit. Steep players have a seamless open world at their disposal, stretching from the snow-white mountain ranges of the Alps to the Alaska Peninsula. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of Caltech in Pasadena, California, manages the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington.Simulator of extreme sports related to the conquest of the highest peaks and peaks of the mountains. The University of Arizona, in Tucson, operates HiRISE, which was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp., in Boulder, Colorado. (The original image scale is 63.3 centimeters per pixel objects on the order of 190 centimeters across are resolved.) North is up. The map is projected here at a scale of 50 centimeters (19.7 inches) per pixel. There is some direct illumination here close to noontime at this time of year, which may be sufficient to initiate some activity.
The image reveals relatively dark streaks down the steep slope, so mass wasting activity has already started. However, the atmosphere scatters light to create some diffuse lighting, and the surface is very bright from winter frost deposition, so a useful image of the surface was obtained.
The solar incidence angle is 91.3 degrees, meaning that the Sun is just below the horizon and there was no direct lighting when this image was acquired. This observation was an attempt to image in late northern winter, in spite of poor illumination. This very steep (more than 60 degrees) scarp shows mass wasting activity every year in the early northern spring, when it is first illuminated after the period of winter darkness.
