Okay, so one of the things about going to Mars is the very thin atmosphere which, 1) difficult to breathe and move, and 2) temperature inclines at human size (feet could be boiling, but your head is freezing). Well, here's a possible solution, at least to overnight stays. The atmosphere inside those holes would be denser, which would even out the temperature inclines. It might make it possible to roam inside using just a breather instead of a full suit.
Hmm, those things to go ask a physicist.

Wait! Don't leave without the rest of us!
Not leaving yet, Rick. This damn TSA makes everything so hard to do these days.
And another thing. I've been in the gas technology business all of my adult life, and I have some suscpicions that gases- even homogeneous alien atmospheres- are actually intelligent.
So what if the atmosphere of Mars is only pretending to be thin as a trap? Soon as we show up it condenses like a supercritical fluid and crushes our terrestrial selves!
Never estimate the possibility of diatomic gas intelligence.
Hmm, very "Color Out of Space."
Although, personally, we all know Mars has little green men. I think they're doing an excellent job spoofing our Mars probes. Which just goes to show how intelligent and advanced they are to avoid detection and make Mars appear to be devoid of all life. I think they're gambling that if we don't see anything, we won't keep coming back.
Kind of like CNN, huh?
A breather and a jet-pack; don't forget the jet-pack!
Or maybe lower people down on ropes. Though, that didn't turn out too well in Alien.
Possible t-shirt slogan: I went to Mars and sat in a deep, dark hole.
Rick, exactly.
Todd, well, of course they would have jet packs to get in and out. Why waste time climbing.
