Tesheiner, I read about the 10K mark, and was hoping that you had updated the route map to show the excursion that put us over the mark -- and you didn't disappoint!
By the way, I'm thinking that Oppy's getting ready to head back to Duck Bay, which looks like the past entry path, plus nice vertical cliffs to examine on the way in . . . |

Maybe they're heading for that crater on the annulus with the pale east rim, then on to the first dark streak? Clealry, they are mssing out Cabo Corrientes. From the area where the first streak meets the rim of Victoria, they'd get a good view of the boulder field inside the crater, the biggest and best collection of tumbled-down rock anywhere inside Victoria. They come from the beds of the layered cape above it (Cape D 1). My guess is they'd like to use those boulders to sample different layers of the strata in the crater wall.
