The surface of Umbriel is like many icy moons. It appears to be changed for it does not have many craters. Instead it has grooves similar to those found on ganymede. These grooves extend for many kilometers (miles) over the surface. The presence of grooves indicates that there has been activity in the interior of Miranda in the past.
