I find it so hard to figure out how close Curiosity is to the peak/ridge of Mt Sharp and whether/when it seems likely to cross over to the other side.

Here is a map: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/msl-curiosity/location-map/
It's nowhere near the peak and is very unlikely to reach it.
I’m aware of the map but I’m unclear on where the peak/ridge is.
The main peak is under the letter "C" in the "Gale Crater" text on that map.
