Mars Rover wheel tracks

 

 

Opportunity was bogged down in the Martian equivalent of sand dunes for over a month

 

The photograph used for this drawing was obtained by Spirit (18.10.04) on the other side of Mars to Opportunity and illustrates the similar difficulties both rovers face navigating surface obstacles
