EVA 8 - Lithe Canyon

Isaiah, Ryan, and I went on a 3.5-hour EVA yesterday, venturing 4.25km from the Hab to visit Lithe Canyon. Our original target was Skyline Rim, but that road was washed away and we aren't alowed to make new ATV tracks due to BLM rules, so we diverted to our secondary target and took some samples there.


Suited up and ready for EVA 8

I climb a hill to get a radio check with HabCom from our remote location.
