“Artist’s concept of the Apollo 17 LRV traverses at the leading site designated Taurus-Littrow on the southeastern rim of Mare Serenitatis (Sea of Serenity). During the 75-hour lunar surface staytime three 7-hour EVA’s are planned. Eva 1 is largely occupied with the deployment of the LRV, ALSEP, and other experiments, with about 2 hours available for a traverse. EVA’s 2 and 3 are largely devoted to the traverses. This section presents the details of the LRV traverses as currently planned. Astronauts Cernan, Evans and Schmitt are the prime crew for the December launch.”

"An artist's concept illustrating the topographical layout of the Taurus-Littrow landing site of the Apollo 17 lunar landing mission. The Lunar Module touchdown point is in the center of the smooth area in the middle of the picture. The imposing mountain in the center is South Massif. A portion of North Massif is in the lower right corner of the photograph. Note the ridge-like feature extending from South Massif to North Massif. The southern portion of the ridge is called Lee Scarp and the northerly portion Lincoln Scarp. (This concept is by JSC artist Jerry Elmore)."

And finally:
"An artist's concept illustrating the topographical layout of the Taurus-Littrow landing site, depicting the traverses planned on the Apollo 17 lunar landing mission using the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV). The Roman numerals indicate the three periods of Extravehicular Activity (EVA). The Arabic numbers represent the station stops. The mountain in the center of the picture is South Massif. A portion of North Massif is in the lower right corner of the photograph. The names of some of the craters are: Camelot (at Station 5); Emory (nearest Station 1); Sherlock (at station 10); Steno (between Emory and Sherlock); Amundsen (at Station 2); Lara (at Station 3); Henry (nearest Station 6); Shakespeare (nearest Station 9); Cochise (nearest Station 8); and Powell (halfway between Camelot and Emory). Note the ridge-like feature extending from Station 2 to North Massif. The southern portion of the ridge is called Lee Scarp; and the Northerly portion is Lincoln Scarp. This concept is by MSC artist Jerry Elmore."
