Arete's are described as "A thin, almost knife-like, ridge of rock" in the wiki, and you see them on the right below the cliff. Ridges are flatter, and you see them mid and left in the image, some following the path. I'm not completely happy with the way handles the hatching where there are sharp turns in the line, but I do find this solution acceptable.

Cliffs, arete's and ridges are not rendered by the default OMT style at this point in time.

Carto screenshot for comparison.

Code in image 2, and in the ALT text of that.
