Some great looking dunes, are we getting too used to the awesomeness of it all??

No...I don't think so. It's beautiful. Imagine walking through a garden laid out like that. Flat, light-coloured cobbling cutting under drifts of dark regolith. Gorgeous! Opportunity ought be sweeping away its messy tracks as it goes.

Looks like they only moved a couple of metres with the most recent drive.

Be careful.
Last images are still from sol 608.

The right inside wall of the left front wheel trench is really clean-cut. Too bad they didn't check it out with the MI!
