Sols 4316-4317: Looking for Sulfur

.Browsing the durable, demanding Martian surface is regularly a difficulty, and our current attempt to reach out to the "Lambs Spring" target highlights this. We had actually gone for little, far-off brilliant stones, however coming from fifty gauges away (concerning 164 feets), the limited resolution of our pictures created it challenging to make improvements navigating. After an eager drive, the vagabond came uncomfortably close-- quiting simply except these tiny brilliant stones. The stones, along with their distinct rounded and pitted "weathering" design (imagined), definitely are similar to essential sulfur shuts out that our team've encountered just before. Frustratingly, although the target stones were right under the front steering wheel as well as plainly apparent in our navigating electronic cameras, they continued to be contemporary of scope of the vagabond's arm.
