Mars Photo
1:
The Mars
Rover Spirit is skidding with one wheel as it descends from the distant edge of
a crater.
The ground
isn't dry dust, as we're used to seeing on the Moon—instead, the wheel crushes
the soil, and it doesn't crumble like dry earth would. It seems the Martian
soil material is moist—or sticky due to some other substance. Mars Photo 2:
Mars
reveals that the ground is moist. One wheel gets stuck and sinks into the damp
Martian soil, leaving a trail where the moisture in the Martian ground is
clearly visible.

Cover a large area of ground with cement dust say 1to2in deep and drive through it at 15/20kmh, you will get the same result as in the photo, but there is no water.
