Not sure where to find this image, but it is new from the Mars rover and shows a shield volcano in the crater that the lander sits.  



Interesting that my late friend, Leonard Martin with the Lowell Planetary Research Center, thought he had fond outgassing on some Viking images.  They turned out to be dust devils, but caused a stir with us Marsophiles.  As it turned out the images were the discovery images or dust devils

My bad, my description was out of habit and forgetting my experience.  It is a cone.  Here are four of them I photographed in 1990 on Mauna Kea while sitting one porch of the UH24.  Similar shapes and colors to the Mars cone.
