This observation can give us some insight on local mass wasting processes (like landslides) as well as details about the stratigraphy of the terrain. Additionally, disturbances to dark sands may characterize windblown processes.

Exposed Fractured Bedrock in the Central Pit of a Crater
This HiRISE image shows the central pit feature of an approximately 20-kilometer diameter complex crater in located at 304.480 degrees east, -11.860 degrees south, just north of the Valles Marineris.
Touring a Dusty Region
Dusty regions on Mars are often considered to look boring in HiRISE images because the dust obscures surface features.
