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 . . .

There are lots of rocks scattered around on the surface--more rocks from space? huh.gif

Hard to say, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised...Meridiani seems more & more like the "Allan Hills" of Mars, but I bet the ice caps are even more fun! smile.gif

Doug, thanks to you & JB for the enhancement of the eclipse sequence...makes sense now.
