The upper portion of this Navcam image, overlaid with some color from this panorama. The panoramic image had to be warped unscientifically by quite a large amount in order to align them.

With how spectacular even the Thumbnails are coming, I am excited to finally see shots of Mt. Sharp itself. Come on JPL, complete your pre-programmed shots, and manually show us the mountain! :)
