For those who thought this week’s cool tool might be a chainsaw, sorry to disappoint.
This week’s tool is nothing if not colourful for it is colour - colourful clothing and accessories to be exact.
Adding a little colour to your wardrobe is important when traveling in the field or forest in order to be seen.
A colour like hunter orange, makes us visible and stand out from other features and wildlife, especially in a forest or field during hunting or lumbering season. It could be a lifesaver.
Nothing like colour to ward off tragedy -- Christine LeGrow of Spindrift Knits of Newfoundland was inspired to develop a line of bright handknitted hats just for that purpose after hearing a story of a local grandmother being mistaken for a wild animal, shot by a hunter and tragically killed.
