After a drive on sol 619, Spirit has finally reached the true summit of Husband Hill, almost touching the summit rock.

But now it almost seems like the title of a children's book: "Spirit, The Robot Mountain Goat." And I vote awesome on the view! I think "Robot Mountain Goat" was a description that Steve Squyres used when they were doing the slope tests before going into Endurance (it's mentioned in his book or somewhere). Except then the rover was actually a crater-goat, now she is really a mountain-goat. It just seemed a natural description It would make a good children's book, actually. I share the general frustration that so many people seem to have lost interest in the rover's adventures, but obviously it's not the people here.

...and this is the 3x stretch version, with an enhancement of the distant DD and Gusev rim and plain details.

Whoa!!! Is that a dust deviel or a stitching artifact in those images. About 1/3 of the way in from the right. It shows up in the original stitch only it's blurrier.... -------------------- Turn the middle side topwise....TOPWISE!!

My first image post after vacation. Dilo did something similar earlier as well. Here I took Tesheiner's pan from sol 619, did some fiddling to remove steps from the horizon, and made a polar-type pan (with exaggerated relief near the horizon) from it.
