From these images it looks as if Opportunity has buried
the wheels on one side in a dune.

Maybe they tried a short-cut across a dune instead of
following the troughs as they have been.

I hope I'm wrong. :(

Still, it's not doing badly for a three month project.

Yeh! I saw that article the next day.

I'm posting some flattened/stereo pairs hazcam pics (links) showing
the tracks up the dune.

They goofed on this one.
