Took the JT out to waipio valley yesterday. Didn’t realize that the road is 20* slope in some spots and averages 12-15* almost the whole way down.

You guys have some spectacular destinations out there!

Yeah this is a pretty cool spot... and it was damn near empty. Only had a few local surfers and maybe 20 tourists all day. It was the emptiest I’ve ever seen it there. I also like it because there’s no cell service, it’s peaceful, and just a great spot to chill and drink beer all day.

Butt o meter

It gets tippy on The Rim. The first time I did it I got scared. After that I got a clinometer. Now my brain can tell my ass that we're not going to die.

That’s great, I’m gonna get one. At what angle do Jeeps tip?

Don't know the answer to that. I know even pinned at 30° by brain can make the rest of my body, especially my ass meter, calm down. My buddy has a TJ that's built up pretty good. His clinometer goes to 40°. He claims to have pinned it.
Long story short. After my first time on the Rim, I was seriously shaken. I spoke to a pilot and he told me how in training they get blindfold and then try to level out the plane. They're never right, based on their instincts, or ass o meter. They're taught to trust their gauges over their body.
With the clinometer I actually had fun on the Rim this time. Just a quick glance, and I knew I was fine.

Actually , during flight training you learn a little about instrument flying where you have this hat gismo called a hood that limits your vision outside . I liked it!

I was actually considering the trail dash 2 because it has these guages. This looks like its a lot more reasonably priced. It would be nice to have a visual reference just to reassure myself from time to time. Wheeling with my buddy Jim in his JLU I was amazed at what the actual numbers were compared to how it felt.

Exactly. It's crazy doing this trail with and without a gauge. Was so much more fun the second time when a quick glance could give me the confidence to carry on.
