Conjunction is over, so it is probably a good time to start a new thread.
I just saw this update from Scott via Twitter QUOTE ('marsroverdriver') Out of solar conjunction & planning to drive Spirit again. Woo-hoo! Come on, little hill-climber, you can do it! -------------------- |

OK, I'll admit my ignorance -- what was wrong with the idea of driving downhill and making our way around Home Plate on the ground below? As I recall, the parking spot was selected with the idea of driving down, not up, in mind.
