Lots else to explore

After Endurance the white area SxSW of Endurance is the next goal (after the heat sheild). Supposedly it is a good place to look for fossils. Then there is the huge crater south of that which I estimate is about 7km south of Endurance. If the rovers last as long as some scientists have suggested (400 sols!) they will have time to check out that huge crater and maybe beyond!

Personally I think we should head for the really huge crater WxNW. You can actually see the outcrop layering and crossbeds around most of the crater rim from this orbital shot! It's about 15km away.
