Thanks.

That image really changes the perspective, doesn't it?. The flow does appear to reach the plain below. This would explain the ditributary.

Also - I noticed in the other image that there are some examples of a normal dendritic drainage pattern on the downslope. Do you see them?

Thanks.

hmmm that is an interesting picture

kinsman: re post # 38: yikes! stay with it-- disagreement, discussion, and skepticism all should promote thought and hopefully bring both sides of the argument closer to the truth. Like you I'm not pretending to actually know what's going on over on some planet millions of miles away, but the least we can do is speculate and criticise each other's arguments in order to enhance both our understandings of the subject.
