A long drive and climb by Perseverance rover during Sol 1347 (December 3, 2024)
The drive distance was 173.45 meters / 569 feet, and an increase in elevation of 26.9 meters / 88.3 feet.
The post-drive tiled image attached is from one the rover’s navigation camera at site 63-1150.
The image was acquired at 2:30pm local mars solar time. The updated map and drive data will be in the comments section of this post.

Drive data
Worth noting that we’ve traversed about 3.5 km and climbed 400 m since the beginning of the “Crater Rim” campaign, c. sol 1245. This rover really has traveled.
Yes the one I automatically calculate is the point-to-point distance between the rover and the heli. After that drive it’s now over 3 km…
