 | | Spirit is northeast of "Machu Picchu," and has crossed a 200 foot wide saddle between the hills and West Spur and, on Sol 332 (Dec. 14th,) approached "Larry's Lookout" during ascent of "Husband Hill". |
 | | The rover examined a number of rocks including "Corn," "Cocomama," "Butter," and "Wishstone," and the occasional rest periods permitted the lubricant in the wheel to be redistributed, allowing the current use to return to normal. |
 | | Periodic rest days will be included in future rover plans, and Spirit will alternate between forward and backward driving to keep the lubricant in all of the wheels more evenly distributed. |
