Mr. Morton recently designed approximately ten kilometers of trails for cross country skiers and biathletes training at the United States Olympic Education Center at Northern Michigan University. Mr. Morton carefully surveyed a very large area and plotted challenging trails which we believe will meet all international homologation specifications.

This alone would have been a very important accomplishment but Mr. Morton's support did not stop there. He also took the time to learn more about this area and especially the unique relationships between the landowners, the land lessors, loggers, and local residents to ensure everyone's needs and desires were addressed. Mr. Morton's counsel and recommendations were critical components to our project's success.

I would highly recommend Mr. Morton to anyone interested in developing professionally designed cross country ski trails. His nordic sports experience, knowledge of the forestry industry, and genuine concern for the environment make him a great asset to any ski trail design team.
