Trail Tools

I've often been asked about really good trail tools. I picked up this beauty today:

And then went on a bit of a rampage in our jungle-like yard - despite Louise's fearful glances :-)

They are about $26.00 plus tax at Rona - which is an excellent price for a good product. Note the extra-heavy-duty leverage that the toothed mechanism provides; they're even a Recommended Product by the Canadian Arthritis Society (!)

The exact same item comes in two or three different handle lengths, but this small pair is more or less hydration-pack friendly!

Speaking of which... I gotta' get me one of those Dakine Trail-builder packs...
