Are you going to have a map showing what Curiosity did to the Rocknest site upon her departure?

No! (sorry) - hmm, wait - I suppose I could add a reprojected navcam mosaic showing that. Later...

For clarity I am splitting the route map here into before and after conjunction sections. I have revised the 'before' route a bit if you compare it with the previous one. Remember the rover is nearly 3 m across, so its arm is closer to Cumberland than it appears here. My 'dot' location is somewhere in the middle of the rover but not necessarily consistently located (yet).

Quick note - we have had a small move on sol 274, but as I am just starting a trip I will not be updating the map until I get back (I have actually done it but did not post it before I left the office). That's only 2 weeks and I can't imagine we will move before then.
