Using Paul's partial panorama in the other thread I have found an approximate location for sol 1489. May be revised later.

I'm travelling so this is just a quick update until I get back and can make a full map with new names etc. A short drive on sol 1499, located by comparing reprojected Hazcams with a panorama by Jan (see current thread).

Provisional update to sol 1499. Less than 11m from quadrant 118 boundary ...

Another quick update while I'm travelling (in Victoria BC this week).
Sol 1500 - I'm a sucker for milestones, however arbitrary they may seem. Phil

Paul's panorama helped me locate the new site - should be a pretty good location, but the path is a guess. Full update next week.

I'm trying to get a perspective on the rest of the Mt. Sharp journey.
Given sol 1500 as a convenient reference, can someone with good map resources tell me how far it is in a straight line distance to a notional flag atop the summit of Mt. Sharp? If there's an extant drive plan, unlikely to be a straight line, and probably falling short of the actual peak, what is it's estimated travel distance and travel time duration? (assuming the same travel/science/troubleshooting rates as the 1st 1500 sols?) I understand plans change, always, and am just trying to learn if we need 6 more months or 6 more years, and how many kilometers more wear on the system. Wade |

Wade, I have answered you in the other thread.
Here is an update to sol 1502 with the locations and path corrected using Tim Parker's map on the MSL website. Full update with names next week. Phil

The hazcams give me a god location for sol 1503:
Nearly 40 m SSE. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Big update - Paul's panorama gave me a good position for sol 1506, and I have added some recent names. The last two drive paths are just guessed.

Here is an updated map for sol 1509. I have taken it all the way back to the end of Murray Buttes to show a designation (M12) for the last butte. One a bit to the northeast was called M9a. I have asked for a map of all butte designations, but I don't know if it will be forthcoming until the data get put in PDS.

Quick update for sol 1512, based on Hazcam images. We are getting close to the little belt of dunes, a spur from the main Bagnold Dunes.
