Bit of a jumble, all right. Wonder if this is the side of the rim that catches the prevailing winds? Might accelerate erosion locally.

Just a "bump" to this thread...
Yestersol (1106) was time to take a 12pos (6x2?) B&W mosaic of Cabo Corrientes. Today is a driving sol (images expected in an hour or two) and tomorrow another mosaic |

It's fun to guess about WHEN we're going in -- but (as I sure has already been noted), this will be dictated by WHERE we go in. My money is on Duck Bay, which by coincidence was our arrival point at Vicky. Gradual slope, and steep cliffs on the left to probe on the way down. In other words, Steve is not going to look this gift horse in the mouth, or tempt the fates. A flat out drive back of what -- 20-30 sols? (But! I have not considered sun angle on Oppy if we went in there . . .)

We are way past Bahia Blanca and Cabo Corrientes so I think it's time to open a new thread.

We received the rest of the sol 1102 look back at the upper lump and Cabo Corrientes in color. It is a nice view. There was a hole in the L2 of the middle frame, which I imperfectly patched. The topographic changes looking back make for a dramatic image. I think the view might even be better from the current location. I haven't checked, but is there another color panorama in this direction in the works?
