Sols 4316-4317: Looking for Sulfur

.Browsing the ruggedized, severe Martian terrain is actually always a problem, and also our latest try to reach the "Sheep Creek" aim at highlights this.

After an eager travel, the wanderer came uncomfortably close-- stopping just short of these tiny intense stones. The rocks, along with their distinctive pivoted and pitted "enduring" design (visualized), highly are similar to essential sulfur blocks out that our team have actually encountered prior to. Frustratingly, although the aim at stones were right under the frontal tire and also accurately visible in our navigation cams, they remained contemporary of range of the wanderer's arm.
