Here's one, not so well developed, from sol 1744:
http://www.midnightplanets.com/web/MSL/ima...66C00_DXXX.html The bunch of bristles changes shape over time - someone might like to make a comparison, I don't have time right now. So the resulting mark will change as well - and will also depend on the hardness of the rock. Early in the mission there was no bunch of protruding bristles, and for a long time the rocks were harder. This must be fairly soft, maybe the clay they expect south of the ridge - and here we are right on the south edge of the ridge. -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
