This month's pathological theme is deltas. Fortuitously, last month, I was looking for high-latitude eolian features without much luck. Searching for areas I thought would have high winds, high sediment delivery, and low vegetation, I came across the McKenzie River delta. What a mess! This is an odd mixture of fluvial and deltaic features, along with periglacial morphologies that looks like it would be heaven for mosquitoes and waterfowl during the summer months. Not so much for a person with no fondness for mosquitoes or mud. Still, from orbit, the area is strangely, abstractly, beautiful.
