Sols 4316-4317: Searching for Sulfur

.Getting through the rugged, unforgiving Martian terrain is always a challenge, as well as our recent attempt to reach the "Lambs Spring" intended highlights this. Our team had actually gone for little, far-off bright rocks, yet coming from fifty meters away (about 164 feet), the restricted resolution of our images created it challenging to make improvements navigation. After a determined travel, the wanderer happened uncomfortably close-- ceasing simply except these tiny bright rocks. The stones, along with their distinguishing rounded and countered "weathering" pattern (visualized), definitely appear like essential sulfur blocks that our experts've run into prior to. Frustratingly, although the intended stones were right under the main steering wheel and also precisely visible in our navigating video cameras, they stayed just out of grasp of the vagabond's division.
