Dust devil encounter, shot by Spirit at the summit of Husband Hill. This image if part of the "Everest Panorama" that took the rover three days to complete.

No new mastcam mosaic from Perseverance, and the crater is obscured by dust anyway. So let's go for an old one, Sol 409, using that beautiful color treatment by the Mastcam-Z Downlink team at Arizona State University.
