Here is an enlarged vertical view of more flow lobes immediately south of those in  Figure 161. Fine lineations radial to King are prominent in the ejecta blanket behind (southeast of) the lobate fronts. The term "deceleration lobe" has been applied because the lobes occur only where the ejecta slowed down and came to rest on slopes that face toward King. They resemble terrestrial rock avalanche deposits that came to rest fter climbing a small slope. Some lobes overlap each other outward like shingles. The sketch shows what would probably be seen in a cutaway view. The arrow shows the direction of movement of the ejecta over the old landscape.   -K.A.H.
