Time for a new thread.
After moving southwards for ages, the "detour" by the western path has started with a 60+ meters drive on sol 1942.

There are no images yet --they should be available on the next update-- so this image was calculated solely based on the rover's mobility info. I'll update the route map later.

Thanks PDP8E! I'll definitely try and do a post or two when I can. Midnight Mars Browser makes it so easy to grab and review MER pics.
