Where on Google Earth #491

Bill's WoGE #490 took us to the Laurens Peninsula of Heard Island, a very interesting location in a very remote part of the world.

This time I give you something vaguely related.

 
 
For such an interesting little area, it is surprisingly rarely visited. Or maybe it isn't so surprising after all...

As always, post a comment with latitude and longitude and write something about the (geologic/geographic/hydrographic) feature in the picture. If you win, you get to host the next one.
Previous WoGEs are collected by Felix on his blog and a KML file.

Where on Google Earth #489

Gord's Colombian mud volcano was fairly easy to solve due to clues which had nothing whatsoever to do with the actual mud volcano! I like that kind of puzzle where a whole lot of different and seemingly unrelated clues come together and point out a very limited area to search in.

For the next one, I considered for a moment asking for the southernmost known eclogite in teh Western Greiss Region of Norway. But since that is a small lens (about 20x80cm) in a shear zone, exposed under an overhang in my own garden, I decided that it was a bit TOO impossible. :)

Instead, I give you hydrology.


This one shouldn't be too hard, I think - but I liked the pattern it makes.
