k Iceformed gullies on Mars Iceformed gullies on Mars. Satellite image of the surface of Mars, showing gullies on a steep slope. In the winter this area is covered with a layer of carbon dioxide ice. In the spring the ice warms up and sublimates going directly from a solid to a gas. As it does so it dislodges material on the slope, forming a gully.
