Sols 4316-4317: Searching for Sulfur

.Navigating the ruggedized, severe Martian surface is always a difficulty, as well as our latest effort to reach out to the "Lamb Creek" aim at highlights this. Our team had actually tried for little, remote vivid stones, however from fifty meters away (regarding 164 feet), the minimal settlement of our images produced it hard to fine-tune navigating. After a determined travel, the rover happened uncomfortably close-- stopping simply except these tiny intense rocks. The stones, along with their unique rounded and pitted "surviving" pattern (envisioned), strongly resemble essential sulfur obstructs that our company have actually run into prior to. Frustratingly, although the target stones were right under the frontal wheel and plainly noticeable in our navigating electronic cameras, they continued to be just out of reach of the wanderer's division.
