When you're sitting quietly in a duck blind and the ducks aren't flying, a woodland pond or a

The closest terrestrial analogue to Ares Vallis is a place called the Channeled

WATERFOWL SURVEYING AND WETLAND RESTORATION IN THE CHANNELED

J Harlen Bretz's wide-ranging field studies along the Columbia River in eastern Washington State from 1910 to 1924 led him to propose that the extensive feature he called the "Channeled
Scablands" had been formed by one or more catastrophic floods of proportions neither seen nor imagined by geologists to be possible.
