Pistol shrimp are blind. They act out of instinct

We did the trail Clockwise, so East -> West

I can't easily answer that question because everyone's level of experience is different. For me, not that bad. I recorded this video while holding my phone in my dominant hand for example. But I have experience with exposed class 3/4 scrambling in the Cascades in Washington State. For someone who doesn't? Probably quite scary. It's highly exposed and eroded. But all class 2. You're mostly walking on rock, not soil. So if it were raining it would be slick and significantly more dangerous. The sound of the waves crashing below can be deafening and unsettling. Most of the ledge is 2-3 feet wide. Some parts are quite narrow. If someone were panicking or clumsy it would be possible to trip and fall off. The angle of the rock face below the ledge is likely too steep to arrest a fall. A fall here would very likely result in a fatality. Definitely be aware of the forecast and intentionally plan your entrance and exit around any precipitation.

2:10-2:40 shows the worst of it.

I have done it twice. This raises the anxiety, but the footing is for the most part rough porous lava rock so it grips good hiking boots. There is a J-hook coming back about mile marker 9 or so where you do down hill on gravel then hook hard to the right I found more terrifying because there was a slope and loose gravel. If you slip you are gone. Also, if you are a dumb ass and attempt to hike in the rain with porous clay in some areas, like coming up Red Hill coming out of the Kalalau Valley things could go bad. This said, I would rather do this in good weather than other spots in bad.

Two pairs actually. AfterShokz Aeropex. The grey ones shorted out on the trip somehow and I gave her mine. They're bone conducting so your ear canals are open. Great for trail running and cycling.

The sun exposure was intense! I'm not sure it was worth going beyond Volcanic Neck in hindsight.

It wedges very nicely between the rear plastic panel and the frame of the printer. No mount needed.

@@hanz_zimmer thanks for your answer mate. Ordered the camera just today.

You know I read it may have been a Rough Piddock Clam as well. Do you have any tips for identification?

haha yeah sorry about that. So I have a Google Pixel and sometimes when Imagine Stabilization is enabled my phone will freeze when I try and stop taking a video. This is the unfortunate result. I originally planned to edit out the part of the video where it was in my pocket but decided not to in favor of having more of the audio recorded. Anyway if you're still looking around I've seen several full recordings of his shows on the Bobby Jameson tour. Including the one in Seattle that I went to.
