Are you going to be there, sir?
I plan to go if the weather for driving up there from CT is not bad.
Well, I hope to see both of you there. I'll be walking the course in the morning, and have volunteered to be a scorer in the afternoon.
My Youngest son is in the Coast Guard in Puerto Rico, he is being reassigned to Boston. His dog is supposed to be flown in on the 17th-18. I have drive down to Logan and pick her up. Things are up in the air so I don't know if I'll make it or not.

2 hour drive for me but what else could be better?
About a 3 hr drive for me, but it's the drive home that is tough. I'm usually pretty pooped out after the shoot. I'm hoping to shoot better than previous years. It was too cold and windy the last time I participated, and my shooting suffered because of it.
That section of real estate is on the down wind down hill side of a small mountain. It's pretty cold in central NH in February, but the wind almost always blows hard there.
The club has put out burn barrels at all the stations, mostly to keep the volunteers a bit more comfortable, but if you're not going for time you can always warm up for a few minutes.

I’ve been practicing snoeshoeing. Now I need to practice shooting! Been a while.
I have never been cold running a biathlon, usually I'm sweating like a pig!

I’ll be there Lord willing. I did the Southern Vermont Primitive Biathlon this past weekend.
I saw the results, and it looks like you did pretty well. also saw where you won the t/C Renegade raffle prize. Lucky guy. I have been going to this event for the last 10 years, and this year I did my best shooting.

If I ever get out to Maine is the use of traditional wood skis allowed?

I was lucky with the raffle. My shooting was good for me. I’m slow on time, 68 years old with a fused spine, titanium rods and screws. But, I like to push myself so do the timed events.

Are there any other clubs running primitive biathlons? I know NY did for a while but I think thats fallen off.
I would love to get out and shoot a match like this
Thanks

I'm not aware of any biathalons near me in NY. Not even any woods walks anymore. There is a line shoot in Middleburg 1st Sunday of the month.
