Sols 980-982: Dodging Sand, Updating ChemCam

On Sol 980, before we drive, ChemCam and Mastcam will
analyze two targets, “Silver Valley” and “Snowslip” and Navcam will watch for
clouds above Mt. Sharp. Then on sol 981, Mastcam will take some pictures of the
crater rim and the sun to measure the amount of dust in the atmosphere. After
that comes the drive and our standard post-drive images so we can see our new
surroundings. Mastcam will also take a 7×2 mosaic of Logan Pass right after
driving.
