Front Hazcam at, I guess, the end of Sol 39. Looks like were at a little crater, note the very differnt looking rock on the near-left rim, could it be layered? I hope we stop for a look.

Yup - front hazcam indeed - does look like a very small crater doesnt it.

Means they covered a LOT of ground during Sol 39 to get there - the Front hazcam raw images are slowly coming in , but there's certainly 20+ metres of driving to get from where they were, to where that little ring of rocks is - if I've found it in earlier pancam imagery

There's a turn in place near it from those front hazcam images, so an interesting drive.
