In that picture, our landing spot is just above the thing that looks like a periscope, if you picture Valles Marinaris as a submarine.

That means the canyon is betwen you and the South Pole, making it a heck of a long drive. No way you could carry enough fuel.

I'd suggest puttering around locally until the shuttles are released, just another couple of days.

Olympus Mons is that big navel-looking thing to the left.
