Here's an annotated version with Endurance, Victoria, and Endeavour craters indicated as well as a very crude indication of Opportunity's route.
EDIT: actual route (red) added. http://www.msss.com/mars_images/moc/2004/01/24/ |

Using the Oppy+landing ellipse image for context (thanks, Centsworth!) I've placed Oppy's route on a pre-landing image showing the putative hematite distribution (warmer colors = more hematite). Looks like we're soon heading for spectrally distinct terrain . Wonder if the "ground truth" will really look any different? Fewer blueberries? Just more dust and duracrust on the ground?
