Voyager stereoimages of Euboea Montes, lo, indicate that this mountain formed when a large crustal block was uplifted 10.5 kilometers and tilted by approximately 6 degrees. Uplift triggered a massive slope failure on the northwest flank, forming one of the largest debris aprons in the solar system. This slope failure probably involved relatively unconsolidated layers totaling approximately 2 kilometers in thickness, overlying a rigid crust (or lithosphere) at least 11 kilometers thick. Mountain formation on lo may involve localized deep-rooted thrust faulting and block rotation, due to compression at depth induced during vertical recycling of lo＇s crust.
