Echo Cliffs

Description
These cliffs are one of the most striking, yet puzzling, geological formations above sea level found on Ammon. Located 1.1 km south of the facility, a rudimentary path snakes uphill before abruptly dropping off into Pioneer Bay below. This feature stands contrary to the rest of the local landscape which consists of continuous (smooth) hills and valleys. The path appears similar to a dry riverbed and extinct waterfall, but the apparent reversed direction of flow further adds to the bewildering formation.

These mysteries only enhance the allure of these cliffs. Being so close to the facility, they quickly became a common spot to marvel at observe the landscape from height.

Plate tectonics debate
In the early days it was hotly debated whether or not Ammon had plate tectonics. These cliffs became a core part of the debate after the discovery of Ammonite Depositions near the base of the cliffs. Proponents pointed to this as proof to geological activity, as previously submerged ground was thrust up out of the sea. The other side argued that this was simply evidence of a higher sea level in the past. The argument was finally settled by the Hades Project.
