Still there, PIXLing the Ouzel Falls abrasion.

But, where are the CacheCam images one would expect after a core was successfully acquired? #Perseverance did drill that rock and acquired a sample one week ago: https://mastodon.social/@65dBnoise/110425491093655543

#Perseverance examining the rock around the Ouzel Falls abrasion. Again.
Something is coming up there.

@65dBnoise I love the evening light and long shadows in these images!

I hope #TheStraightHorizonPolice is also happy 😉

This looks like #Perseverance having a moment of revelation at Ouzel Falls.

This guy appears to be having a hard time climbing the 30° SW slope of Carew Castle. 🙃

#Perseverance has a 7° tilt at that location. Context map follows.
