Thanks, Jan. I used the composite image to make a circular view - my orientation was a bit off with the earlier one from Paul. We will be weaving between dark sand patches for quite a while along this path.

Very nice, Jan. Here is a circular projection of it showing the location relative to these dark sandy patches.

Thanks, Jan. This drive was about 60 m northeast through a gap in the dark sandy patches. Here's a circular projection to show the new location.

Here's a small (256x256) animated GIF of the Sol 2786 drive between the sand patches mentioned by Phil. The 14 frames were acquired with the front left hazcam. The sequence concludes with the a look back towards the setting sun and the path the rover had taken. The local timestamps are taken from JSON.

Thanks, Jan. Here is a circular version.
When compared with HiRISE images for my map, this shows a very good drive of about 80 m to the east, ending below a big elongated butte almost separated from the pediment. A rubble-covered patch thought to be a landslide deposit off the slope of the butte is just southeast of the rover. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

I made this animation using two RMI mosaics taken respectively on sol 2295 and 2726. It provides really different points of view on this cliff located 1,2 km South-East from the rover:

That's really nice!
Not much to go on yet for the sol 2790 drive, but the hazcams are enough for a pretty good estimate (usually they are not so helpful). Here's a projected version of a front-rear pair. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

I made two photomontages to show RMI mosaics (sol 2295 and sol 2726) into a wider context provided by MastCam 100mm.
The featured steep cliff is about 10m high. To better grasp its scale, I added Matt Damon from the Martian movie and Curiosity rover itself. I also added the Statue of Liberty in another photomontage to grasp the scale of the background 100m high hill. -------------------- |
