The ~85m drive on sol 3744 was uphill, starting the long climb of Cape Tribulation.

Thank you Paolo for pointing me to the links! Will Opportunity climb any higher than the brown elevation on its way to Smectite valley, or just follow the brown contour around. The ridge of the white peaks would have a great view...

Will Opportunity climb any higher than the brown elevation All we've heard is the proposed route map on Crumpler's blog. It shows the route climbing pretty much to the highest point ("summit lithology"). I seriously hope we make it there... |
