  The 36 gullies referred to in the title of this observation
  were previously identified and fully described in a MOC image.

o Meandering Slope Streak
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_022991_2070

  This dusty region of Mars has many slope streaks, which are
  thought to form when dust cascades down a slope.

o Remains of Summer at the South Pole
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_023174_0945

  This image captures the margin of the South polar residual ice
  cap where it meets the surrounding terrain.

o The Crazy Floor of Hellas Basin

  The deep floor of Hellas impact basin is often obscured by haze,
  but at times we get some clear views.
