Some of the craters in one photo look like they have been wind blown or weathered, shouldn't be any wind blowing or weathering going on, I would think.

Iapetus is mostly ice. It’s period of rotation is 79 days. When the dark side faces the sun, ice sublimates and some it is redeposited on the light side, which makes the dark side darker and the light side lighter. The craters are made of ice, on which more ice constantly precipitates.
