I am starting a new thread for the climb into the hills and valleys of the sulfate unit. I had naively anticipated knowing when a sharp compositional boundary would be crossed, but more likely it will be gradual and the crossing point arbitrary. So the odometer clicking up to 3200 seems like a reasonable place to start a new section. There will be no shortage of amazing views to greet us as we rove on, singing 'sulfates on the soles of our shoes' perhaps.
Start posting here on sol 3200! Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Jan's panorama in circular form - sol 3383. The extreme relief produces unavoidable distortions.

See this Curiosity's MAHLI image from sol 3385. A last drill hole before climbing onto the Greenheugh Pediment?

Too late! We have already moved well past it.
Charborob, thanks for the amazing mosaics. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
