It looks like there is a nice ramp that will lead to the crater floor. Love to see what those crazed, dried mud looking features are in there.

I'm sure the project leaders have been sitting around conference tables the last few days discussing the best route to safely get the Rover down inside the crater so it can access the rock strata that are exposed along the rim. These are important since they'll tell a tale of Martian geological history and are a highly desirable 'target'.
