Another drive today, it seems! Take it easy Scott, these sorts of speeds we'll get dizzy!

I could see at least a few good routes off of HP. At the southernmost part of HP, there's basically no dropoff as you exit from HP.
The first exit route is between Low and SW ridges (see Tesheiner's map). Here's the view from sol 1337; we'd go straight into the middle of this view and then turn to the right: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all...FUP0716R0M1.JPG The second is just west of the high point of SW ridge, though it's a bit hard to know what the south side of SW ridge will be like. This route would be into the left side of this frame: http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all...FUP0716R0M1.JPG Finally, a twist on the previous route would be to go a bit farther west and taste the outcrop rock of "the saddle": http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all...JAP1907R0M1.JPG |
