Summary

Description
English: Meandering stream with cutoff, as seen by hirise under HiWish program. Location is 36.196 N and 305.99 E.

Text from original publication:

As rivers age they can meander and occasionally these meanders get so pronounced that the river cuts off these curving loops at their narrow end leaving them as isolated oxbow lakes.
The objective of this observation is to check for the presence of these features. At HiRISE resolution, we should be able to test for traces of former meandering river channels in what looks like an oxbow feature in images from lower-resolution cameras.
