Trail Sense, it's all the "survival" tools in one great package. Do I use it often? No. Does it feel like unwrapping my favourite toy every time I open it? Absolutely.

I use the AR tool for sun positions every time I'm finding a tent spot or to watch a sunrise/set, and the bubble level is perfect for finding a tent spot that isn't tilted 2 degrees towards your head so you wake up with a headache.
That is a great use of this tool that I have not thought about!
If sunrise and sunset is your thing then the website suncalc.net works great to find what places will have the best views for different times of year.
I go watch the sunset as part of my solstice and equinox adventures so finding new places with nice views is fun.
It may have to start being my thing, I moved to a place on ground floor with no sunrise or sunset view. I never thought about it when moving, so now I'll have to supplement my sunset intake
