Narrative : After about 10 minutes driving, we arrived at Candor Chasma. We walked in the canyon for about 25 minutes. It was really beautiful, but there were a lot of trees, which is not really martian.
We saw beautiful rocks of surprising colors, such as pink, deep red or even green. Then we went back to the rovers and drove home.
