Its route will only be a 20 degree descent, and it’s already survived 32 degrees.

Nah, it’s final resting place will be in the Mars City Museum.

This was an awesome mission - by both rovers. I had several opportunities to see one of them before launch - pretty neat little machines. Tremendous that they have been able to overcome all the mission obstacles that were thrown at them up to this time, and their longevity.

The crater appears to be a worthy final object for exploration unless the rover tips over.
