Default MER Opportunity: Sol 70 -- Do you think Opp is going have a close look?

What a wonder! What kind of rift or trench is this?

The sides look a bit steep and crumbly? Do you think Opp should try
to look in at the rock exposure. It looks deep and a bit dangerous
for our heroic and valuable rover. Maybe it would be better to if it
kept its distance. The crater doesn't look very wide but surprisingly
deep. I am surprised drifting sand hasn't filled it up yet. It would
be nice to have a close look at that bedrock exposure though. What do
you think they will do?

And look at these strange depressions. Is this a fracture in the
bedrock? A crater? A rille? A ditch? What caused this trench?
