This latest abrasion patch is the third we've taken on Witch Hazel Hill, on the exterior rim of Jezero Crater, all within the last month. For comparison:

Abrasion patch 33, sol 1375 (where Percy subsequently grabbed that crumbly core sample just this week)
Abrasion patch 34, sol 1395

Percy is getting busy!

Abrasion patch #35 is my favorite from Witch Hazel Hill. Very nice and uniform.
