I think you are right (my todays obervations support it).I took it that the pin points at your position but the blue dot is still not it. Your position is somewhere between them.
Anyway Day 4:
First thing when starting day i noticed this..is that really what i think? Sun is getting out Lovely sight:
Surface looks great in morning light:
Drove a little then noticed this on the horizon. Cliffs?:
Notice very rolling terrain in previous pic. After that it evened little out (with more rolling patches between). At one point there was big crater to the left (in this pic cliffs still ahead but slowly closing):
(And at that point i realised something - these cliffs are what i planned to be my Waypoint 1 (the strange thing on surface map).
(Another point - that "little yellow thing" at the left of the pic is system sun )
As i was getting closer to my target i noticed i was driving into a cliffs shadow. It was getting a REALLY dark (i really wasn't seeing what i was driving into):
Then very suddenly i noticed i was ascending. Constant 30-35 degrees (SRV scanner was full of wall ) :
Then noticed this....:
...and at one moment was suddenly out of darkness. Finally some light:
What was i getting into? Did i make a wrong turn somewhere? Not complaining. Just WOW:
That previous peak was too high for me, but still very hilly terrain around and ahead:
Finally ended in front of a crater, and decided it was good spot to end the day. It was long day, but worth it (i didn't even try to land a ship here, today is sleeping in SRV ) :
Day 4 end position. Waypoint 1 reached:
Day 4 drove 65km (total 240km).
