We're starting to get MI's in from the "scratch and sniff" stop on the Etched Terrain on the way to Erebus:

Basically - I'd have thought "right - this is the outcrop - have we actually covered some vertical range here - are we looking at something different - or is it similar to before" and actually - you could take the apxs spectra from here - and match it up with the ones from the crawl down Endurance and see how deep - if any - we are.
Then - if it IS something new - give it the works - and do so again at erebus. If it isnt - I'd be inclined to make only a vostok-like flying visit to Erebus - and skirt it's NE rim with a 180deg mosaic, before heading SE. Doug |
