When trapping was overhauled in 2008, the news.txt said:

- added: natural holes in the ground as a zoom map terrain feature

        You can occasionally find naturally formed holes in the ground
        on the zoomed in maps. The holes can be utilized in building
        a trap-pit at the location if one finds it reasonable.

I have never seen such a hole. You do of course see some sharp changes in elevation near cliffs and mountains but you can't build a trap pit there without digging a hole first.

Hmm. I have a vague recollection of this being added in the past, but the present code shows zero indication of it so it's been removed somewhere along the way - probably during the terrain elevation overhauls. So it's currently a missing feature, maybe to be re-evaluated at some point.
