Unnamed Southern Crater with deep Gullies (CTX Frame - Absolute Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)
This observation shows gullies in a Southern HemisphereUnnamed Crater whose Floor has large Mounds of material that are likely "Slump Blocks" that fell off the Crater Walls during a late stage of formation (---> this is a Gravity Wasting Event). There are also a large number of Dunes of different sizes and facing different directions on the Crater Floor. 

A lot of Polygonal Fractures can also be seen on the Walls, inside the Gullies (see the following EDM). In addition, some of the Gullies facing the East were active more recently. They do not have Polygonal Fractures or they have fractures that are less well-developed. 
A narrow, primarily unmodified Channel is also visible.

It is unknown over what period of time Gullies formed in individual settings and globally. It is possible that Gully formation continues today.
