One If By Land

On that famous night of April 18, 1775, it had been determined that if the land was snowless then Paul Revere would ride his horse to warn the troops but if snow was still on the ground then it would have been Faith's Fearless Forebear, an expert skier. There was no snow and the rest is history.

Here's the real bio on this John Morton. "John Morton represented the U.S. in the biathlon at the Winter Olympics in 1972 and 1976. He was also a coach or team leader of the U.S. biathlon team at four subsequent Olympic Games and the head coach of men's skiing at Dartmouth College from 1978 to 1989. He now designs cross-country trails; competes on the masters running and skiing circuit; is a regular commentator for Vermont Public Radio; and writes about the outdoors from his home in Thetford, Vt."
