北極の白雲はEric Sussenbach氏も記録されている。
Orographic clouds are well recorded in Damian Peach's image. Olympus Mons shows that wind is blowing from the northeast direction.
 Also, white clouds are seen in the North Pole. It seems that this cloud is visible with the same whiteness and brightness as other 
orographic clouds. Mr. Eric Sussenbach is also recorded for Olympus Mons and Arctic white cloud.

Ongoing hot, unstable conditions prevented any decent RGB data. 
Submitting the attached low-res IR capture for the record. 
The Vallis Marineris complex is approaching the CM.

Poor seeing but none the less a result was possible. Bright orographic clouds over Olympus Mons/Tharsis.

Eric Sussenbach
Although still very small here is an image of Mars in which some structure and clouds are visible.
