Slope Monitoring in Hale Crater

Slope Monitoring in Hale Crater
In a 2013 image, we saw abundant slope lineae, and it is early in the season for them to appear at this latitude. When are these active? Are they leftovers from last year? High resolution data will allow for the refinement of the previous observation to distinguish more, including evaporitic deposits if present.
