This particular outcrop has been in view for weeks when approaching the hills. I think JPL has at least partly aimed for it, as it is such a visible feature. Unfortunately it is quite high up the hill, and I don't think Spirit will be traversing that slope.

Here is a pancam shot of it from sol 150:
