This VIS image is located in Terra Cimmeria, near the margin with Nepenthes Mensae. The highlands of Terra Cimmeria are at the bottom of the image. Tectonic activity has created fault blocked regions along the highland boundary. With time and erosion, the blocks become isolated mesas, and then the low hills of Nepenthes Mensae.
