Uploader comment: Morava Valles drained Ladon Basin and discharged towards the large regions of chaotic terrain near the head of Ares Valles.
Because the valley emerges full bore from Ladon Basin (much like the Niagara river emerges from Lake Erie on the Earth), it has been hypothesized that it was formed when a lake overflowed the basin.
