Here are the coordinates: Opportunity: 1.98° N 5.94°W Mars 6 23.90° S, 19.42° W Yes...I dreamt about Oppy meeting the old Soviet probe...But they're too far for that... -------------------- "Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied, "If you seek for Eldorado!"

According to http://mars.google.com/, her coordinates are 1.95° S, 5.53° W. It may be easier to go "downstream" to meet Pathfinder, even though it's a bit further. By the way, what's the name of that "river"?
