Ridged Margin of Elevated Plateau North/West of Pavonis Mons (possible True Colors; credits: Lunar Explorer Italia)
Snaking across this observation is a ridged margin that appears as though it separates two parts of a canvas.
On closer examination (see the edm), it almost looks as though there is a relatively smooth landscape on the left, and pockmarked terrain on the right.
The ridge itself is revealed in incredible detail with what appear to be "gulley-esque" grooves running its length.
Pavonis Mons is part of what is called Tharsis Montes, being the middle of three volcanoes in this Region. The name "Pavonis Mons" itself is Latin for "Mount of the Peacock".

Mars Local Time: 15:25 (early afternoon)
Coord. (centered): 3,6° North Lat. and 243,8° East Long.
Spacecraft altitude: 265,3 Km (such as about 165,8 miles) 
Original image scale range: 26,5 cm/pixel (with 1 x 1 binning) so objects ~80 cm across are resolved 
Map projected scale: 25 cm/pixel 
Map projection: EQUIRECTANGULAR 
Emission Angle: 1,3° 
Phase Angle: 54,5°
Solar Incidence Angle: 54° (meaning that the Sun is about 36° above the Local Horizon)
Solar Longitude: 103,5° (Northern Summer)
