... and an update of the last detailed map. The white squares are sites of in situ observations (any combination of APXS and MI activities with the arm)

We just moved away from the cliffs and down towards the valley on sol 3945. I only have a very vague idea about location and path, so this will be corrected later.

Update to sol 3948, making quite a big correction to the previous position now we have a full pan down.

Another move - looks like we are on our way down to the valley now. The position is only approximate at the moment.

Down in the valley at last! This location is good, but the path is conjectural until I know more. EDIT - replaced with a good path from a useful tweet... thanks, Mike.

I've made a few modifications to the map... not sure I have the Speckled Hill-Swann Hill business sorted out yet.

Update to sol 3998, moving up to the edge of Spirit of St. Louis. This is only based on reported distance and direction as I have no images yet.

Update to sol 4000 - amazing! The latest positions may not be quite right as I still don't have images. Maps like these made from reprojected panoramas will contain relief distortions which I can't remove at this stage.
